Description

While not quite as classic as some of the other routes on the left side of wailing wall this route is well worth doing. A distinct bouldery crux and immaculate limestone crimping up high characterize this line. After climbing the low angle somewhat chossy face for two bolts, tackle the bouldering crux on pinches, sidepulls, and finger locks. After the crux get a good rest on moderate climbing and tackle the thin face above with pumpy big moves leading to the anchors.

There are several variations and linkups to this route. If you traverse right at the 4th bolt, and finish on the right anchors over a bulge it is "Goin Stealin 13b".

If you traverse right at the 4th bolt, climb the right bolt line until the last bolt and anchor of Infidels it is "Goin Nowhere 13a".

Location
