Description
This route is pretty dangerous if supplemental gear isn't used. The first bolt is 30ft up. It's really safe if you protect with gear.
Climb up the upward right diagonal rock. Protection can be placed here if anxious. Arrive at a comfy ledge. The first bolt is still 12ft up at this point. Thus while on comfy ledge protect with gear in the vertical and horizontal cracks to prevent a broken tibia. Pull artsy and delicate sequences to each bolt and enjoy.
