Description
Start on Blocky Horror Picture Show (12d). The bottom crux is now some what harder after a key jug ripped off this spring. Climb the route as normal all the way through the crux. Rather than doing the final finish move to the mega jug rest, continue up and slightly left, doing the hardest moves of this route link-up. Three big, powerful, awesome moves on fairly decent holds put you entering the upper crux of Lost and Found (12b), two bolts from the anchor. Try not to blow it before clipping as you are quite runout from your last clip on Blocky Horror Picture Show. Continue to the anchor of Lost and Found, but rather than clipping, continue up and left into the final 5 bolts of Dirty Johnson (12c). This is endurance climbing at its finest, there are no hard single moves, but putting it all together is where I thought the grade comes from. It could be 5.13a/b, but who knows? This rig has a ton of 4 star movement. A 70m rope barely gets you down.
