Description
Start in a small seam (reachy for the shorter) that leads to a ledge. From here, fire up through a fantastic sequence of gastons, sidepulls, flakes, and a cobble to reach an undercling and a large move to the next ledge. This is very fun and thoughtful. It is much more continuous than it looks from the ground. If you are walking south (left) from The Grocery Store, get on this route!
I am adding this route, because it is not listed here. Please update any information if it is your route or you know more about it. I created a temporary route until the correct information is found.
Location
This is currently the only sport route at the Neanderthal Wall. It is between the large roof system of Primal Jam and Cheater Five. It is on a clean face looking east.
