Description

Night Moves. I believe this route is worthy of a Bob Seger namesake, and I think there will be a bunch of different sequences to send the crux.

Cheers to everyone who helped work this thing out, especially Nolan Roberton, who had some great advice on where the line would go and where to put the key bolts around the crux.

Location

This is the line in between Track Team and Reverse Cowgirl.

[Hide Comment] Fun route. Hard .12b or baby poo soft .12c. Aug 27, 2016

[Hide Comment] I'm with Eric on this one, more mid-12 than hard 12. I could certainly see finding a harder sequence through the crux, as there are a lot of options that work, but with the beta, I found it wasn't too bad. Fun route, regardless of the grade. Sep 15, 2016

[Hide Comment] Yeah, you might be right. Maybe I just had a weird sequence. Either way, regardless of rating, glad people are getting on it. Sep 19, 2016
