Description
Interesting route with an exposed alpine trad route feel, even though it is bolted. First third of the climb is frictiony through a dihedral section, then flattens out a bit to the crux. Cruxy finish to the chains over a relatively blank vertical face with a few interesting pocket holds. Feels solidly within the 5.8 grade, unlike many of the over-graded routes at North Bend.
**Admin's note: I truncated the route name due to some confusion and pointless debate about the full name.
