Details
Please stop putting the dreaded "X", "Bees" or "Snake" on the rock faces. Please be smart and conscious of others.
Stop putting tick marks on the rock unless you are going to brush them off when you are done on the route. This goes against the ethic of the area and in the eyes of the locals is the same as graffiti. Rock climbing is an outdoor sport and guess what lives outdoors? That's right, bees, wasps, snakes, and even bears! We all know they exist, no reason to write it on the walls.

Description
A bad ass climb on solid, beautiful rock with good gear. Jug Rash is essentially a bouldery sport climb on gear. If this route were bolted, it would see constant traffic. Pat truly found an overlooked gem with this one!
Start on a pointed block and climb to a stance on the arete under the right side of the roof. Place some gear, move up, then left with an attentive belay and be ready to fight in a great cam (.4). A big deadpoint sets you up for a good stance and gear leading into an awesome boulder problem. Powerful moves punctuated with good stances to protect follow. Head to the crack / flake then up left to the bolted anchor. This climb is outstanding.
