Description

Start by stick clipping the first bolt. I guess you can put it up yourself if you want but I don't trust myself not to roll of the ledge if I blew it. Begin with a pull up, some scrambly feet, and some half-campusing until you can get your feet on the wall and scrooch your way up the corner. This route is an awkward riot and I enjoyed every second of it.

Location

First corner on the Mahican Ledge, if you're climbing Dichotomous Empanadas you've gone too far.

Protection

4 bolts, pigtail anchors
