Description Suggest change

The route starts 5 feet to the right of Ying-Yang. A bolt protects the initial face moves as you traverse left to the corner. The crack used to be vegetated and dirty, and is now cleaned up and climbable, but still cary the nut tool in case you need to clean some dirt from the crack.
The route have 3 distinct cruxes - first for face moves after you clip the bolt, second 35 feet up reaching for good finger-lock via thin crack in the corner (10c/d) and last surmounting small bulge (5.10) to reach the final ledge.
The route is climbing better than it looks

Protection Suggest change

One bolt protects initial face moves traversing to the thin crack.
5 feet above the bolt there small slot- perfect placement for black alien and two more feet above slot for small nut. This placements we found sufficient for not to place second bolt.
Double from black alien to #2 Camalot + micro and medium nuts. Nice to have triple for green, yellow and red aliens size.
You need 80 m rope or two ropes to get down from the top.
