Description

Begin by climbing a boulder problem to the shared rest ledge with Dirty Smelly Hippie and Spank. From the ledge, sequential moves on slopey huecos gradually build in difficulty, culminating in a powerful lateral move left to a positive edge. Merge into the final rest of Beer Belly, before tackling its final crux.

Although this gets 13d in the guidebook, numerous ascents by experienced climbers have suggested an upgrade.

Location

Start just left of Dirty Smelly Hippie on the left side of a protruding buttress located in the center of Drive-By Crag.
