Description

The highball start is the mental crux the whole route has quality 5.9 climbing. Very good exposure. Vertical steep movement. Off the deck it is 20 ft to the first bolt. You can cheat and come in from the right to avoid the business though. A must do for the grade (all the 5.9 routes are fun and close together)

Location

This route is the 3rd from the big tree at the start of the wall. It is named "orange" for the orange streak that the route follows up the rock.

Protection

I took 10 draws. Several bolts and slung huecos to a two bolt anchor with a rap station.
