Description Suggest change

Sit start the laser-cut arete with the right hand on a low pinch on the arete, and the left hand just left on a sidepull crimp. 

Pull on and smack up to the smooth feature on the arete. Continue up the arete with a few low left hand sidepulls and slopey right hand pinches with some incredible tension. The crux is the last move, and it is a bit scary. Once the flat lip is reached, there is a mega bucket out left.

Location Suggest change

While inside the Chasm looking at "Chasm Crack" walk to the left to where the sloping lip/ arete meets the ground then spin around 180 degrees. This line is very obvious, but the landing is a bit tight between the two boulders.

This boulder problem is found on the same boulder as "Looks Are Deceiving", or is found directly behind the V8 "The Chasm". It climbs the slightly left leaning right arete.

Protection Suggest change

2 or 3 pads. A good spotter, one who knows what they are doing.

The crux is a barn door tension move and it could spin you off the wall into the slab of the boulder behind.
