Description Suggest change

Short and bouldery, this line is a slightly more powerful and less technical version of the delicate Mayday on Monday to its right.
Start with a seam lieback past a bolt to reach good horizontals rails and setup for a big reach/throw into a sharp corner crack (the first blade of the propeller). Gingerly lieback this short section, taking care not to pull straight out on the large blocks which form the corner (they sound hollow but feel solid). Figure out which feet you can use (hint: none) to throw to another sharp corner, mash your sad fingers in the sharp licheny crack (the second blade of the propeller), and mantle on the ledge from which you can reach the anchors. 

Location Suggest change

You'll find the Propeller Blades spinning on a 50' tall panel of clean rock directly left of the approach rappel. 

Protection Suggest change

5 bolts to chain anchors shared with Mayday on Monday. Very well protected, the upper half could go on gear if you trusted the blocks (I don't)
