Description
Start up the thin hands crack left of the first bolt. Cruise up easy jams, traversing right to the first bolt. Easy terrain gets a dumb 2nd bolt and an arguably dumber 3rd bolt. Reach up to the jug rail, and traverse across over to the anchor.
Note 1: Reaching the jug rail by the third bolt is extremely height-dependent. Folks under 5'10" or so will likely have to do a bit of a dynamic jump to the jug rail to get it. I wouldn't expect folks under 5'4" or so to be able to hit the rail even with jumping.
Note 2: If you blow the traverse at the hardest part below the anchors, you'll likely hit the ledge unless you have an immaculate belay. Be solid at the grade, ask your belayer to spike you if you blow it, or better yet - just do this line on TR. There's no glory in this one.
