Details
Much of the surrounding area is private property with public trail access, but GLR was donated to IRLC back in the early 2000's which gives it free reign in terms of public access to hunting, as well as climbing.
Description
An epic looking route which follows a black strip up the cliff and leads you to the top. Starting at the bottom of this black strip you work your way up using massive flakes forming juggy sidepulls and underclings until you get to the namesake of the route, a couple of big ol' knobs sitting a little more than halfway up the wall. From here you go up a bit further until the path splits, one path goes up and right to a large arete feature with really unique climbing and the other goes up and left on more crimps and edges. Currently the arete path is the only one that has been done but both should be around the same grade.
This is another route which would benefit from getting bolted as the flakes that make up many of the holds are not nearly solid enough to take gear.

Location
Look for the long black strip next to Prehistoric Tool Use. There is also a ledge to the right of it and the strip will be about 7 feet from it.
