Description
Ranger Bolts younger but more difficult brother.
Starts up a 5.12- over hang which leads to a very easy slab. After the slab the main crux comes at you pretty quick with big moves, small slopey crimps and some akward foot movements. Past this is a mix of 5.11 to 5.12- climbing with rests to a very thin repoint crux right before the chains. You can continue to the tippy top from there or rap.
