Description
This route starts with 10’ of loose 5.6 off the ledge, then turns on and stays engaging from the 2nd bolt to the anchors. The hardest moves are passing the overhanging orange bulge; big moves between good edges with tiny feet. Pumpy and sequential at the top.
Location
Start off the traverse ledge 20’ up wall a few feet left of “sicker red slick.” Same start ledge as slicker/immortals/sharks fin. DO NOT START AT THE BASE. Caution with first 10’; the rock at the start is very loose. Above that follow a shallow dihedral/groove on nice rock, then up over a steep orange bulge to an arete.
