FA: unknown
Alabama > Smith Mountain > Latrine Boulder

Description

Start on hold marked in picture (either left on incut, right on side edge, or vise versa.) 1st move is the crux, move is right hand to large jug above start hold. See pictures for more details

Overall, this route is a traverse route in the reverse direction (right to left) of Hip Hopper.
Mostly positive handholds with very small and sparse footholds, moves require a lot of body tension. The finish is the same as Hemmorhoids
