Description
This route is so much fun,.. it has you firing on all cylinders from beginning to end! With a good clip stick you can hang the 1st three draws from the ground or hike around and rap in from the anchor of Sergeant Shultz. The route follows the obvious overhanging white rib of rock at the start of the gully that leads up to "Wild Blue Yonder" and "Skunks in the Gym". Climb straight up to the 1st bolt and make increasingly difficult moves out right to an obscure hold in dark rock to clip the 2nd bolt. Launch back left and make super fun compression moves to the top of the rib and clip the 3rd bolt at your hip. If you are "heroically" strong, (or just not as weak as me), you might clip lower. After encountering the fourth and final bolt, make another crux move to exit left to the anchor!
