Description

Stick clip the first bolt then boulder out the low roof. Good core tension ends with a snap to a crimp and a sloper. Slight traverse right to a hueco and a big undercling stand up move leads you to the second bolt. The climbing eases from here but sill involves long reaches between great holds. Varied rock goes from typical NRG huecos and slopers to classic RRG iron bands. At the top, move slightly right of the dihedral to the face and race to the chains.

If you stick the boulder problem to the 2nd bolt, the send is yours

Location
