Description
This funky route begins about 20 feet left of Bongledesch and about 30 feet right of Drawstring.
Start at a bulging overhang with a bolt. A strenuous (5.11-) mantle surmounts the bulge. Then climb straight up to a crack (2 to 3-inch pro here). Move left to another bolt, then traverse further left (5.11-) on steeper, thin slab moves until you can move back up and right into a scoop. Climb past a horizontal break (no pro) then runout (5.8 R) slab climbing takes you up to the big ledge (called Large Ledge) at the top of Mike's Books first pitch.
