Description
Big Excuse is an excellent link up of Big Poppa and No Excuse and one of my favorites in the Dungeon. Stick clip the first bolt of Big Poppa, and boulder up to the large jug flakes. Clip the second bolt of that route, then traverse right on good holds to the 5th bolt of No Excuse. Layback and up the corner to some hard moves near the top. It is possible to sneak right to Soaked in Sin at the top, but the best moves are left on the face. Take 12c if you stay on the face.
