Description Suggest change

Begin on a large flake and gain the first ledge up and to the right, which is characterized by massive jugs. Make the first clip and continue up to another ledge. From there, work your way to the small roof, where you'll find large jugs and somewhat glassy feet. Continue upwards on some textured jugs, pockets, and ledges until you hit the anchors.

Location Suggest change

This will be the second to last bolt line on the right hand side of the cave as you walk up the stone stairs. Begins on (or just right) of a giant flake.

Protection Suggest change

8 bolts + anchors (2 bolts with chains and 1 rap ring)

There are two bolts out left near the third and fourth bolts. I chose to clip the ones that were on the face of the climb, but clipping out left may have reduced some of the rope drag and made cleaning easier. I'm not sure if those were meant for cleaning or for another route, but it's your call whether or not to use them!

Additionally, I rapelled instead of lowering on this one as there are some sharp edges that may rub against the rope. It's also a pain to clean the last 2 or 3 bolts, so toprope cleaning may be the best option.
