Description
This is an old A4 aid line, the bottom 45 feet goes free at 10b and has some spectacular, well protected climbing. Great climb at the LTW for those starting to lead 5.10s at Index. Cool sections of finger crack punctuated by good rests.
A final move onto the face left of the thin crack brings you to the anchor.
Continuing past this point is the original aid line, Artifice, which has never seen a free ascent.
