Description

We did this to add another warm-up to the Mustache Wall. Follow the bolt line approx 15 feet left of B-Gizzle. Stem up and jam your way up until bolts lead left. ( It's also possible to head right instead, gear recommended. From there, find a bolt and anchor. Second pitch gear routes start both left and right from that anchor.)

Name History

Copied from FA Rick Ziegler's comment:

The only person the route name is a slight to is to the first ascenionist (me). I was on crutches with a broken ankle at the time that I cleaned out all the loose blocks that now line the base. I would crutch up the trail, jumar a fixed line with one leg and clean this line. Back in those dark ages, many friends called me "gimp." The intent of the name is not to disparage to any group of people, only a nod to its history and the proximity to a route name "Grindulator."
