Description

This is the rightmost of two steep, usually perma-drawed sport lines that go up the right side of the Narcissus Cave. It was recently rebolted with new beefy 1/2 inchers. Start with some sequential, reachy arete moves (the same moves that the 11d "Simple Minds" starts with). After the first bolt, make a left traverse to a good jug, then make some cool roof moves straight up. The crux involves some big moves, bouldering power, and one drilled pocket.
