Description Suggest change

Short but good movement for the grade.  Fun line.  Can also serve as the rap-in to the area as well as the exit.  Better than the talus approach.

Protection Suggest change

Three bolts to a two bolt chain anchor with a quick link.  There is a huge block up there (see photo) that had me nervously check under, stomp on, crow bar and curse.  Never even came close to giving any indication it would ever move.  That being said, tread lightly and belay off to the side.  The Topo gives the impression the first bolt is a ways off the deck, optical illusion.  Easy first clip on big stance.

Location Suggest change

You can follow either trail into the The Air Strip as is outlined on the cover page then walk north or south along the edge (depending on the trail chosen) until you reach a red fixed line off a tree.  This leads to an easily reached anchor to rap in.   OR, take the trail out of the Shangri La camping area to the edge and then walk north to the talus approach also outlined on the cover page.
