Description
This linkup of Kittens, Rainbows, and Lollipops with Runnin' Ragged was listed as a separate route in the new route additions to Adirondack Rock. Perhaps because of its excellent quality it warrants this distinction (rather than being a mere variation), as it creates not only the best moderate on the cliff, but easily one of the best moderate single pitches in the Adirondacks. The only reason to avoid it is if you are looking to truly onsight Runnin' Ragged.
Climb the corner, passing the roof on the right. Then, step right on a ledge to a snaking crack--the finish of Runnin' Ragged. Follow this to the fixed anchors.

Protection
Standard rack. As for Kittens, Rainbows, and Lollipops, no wide gear is necessary for the start- a hidden thin crack provides the gear needed.
