Description

This is a funky little number, and it is puzzling how to make sure it's fun.

I started with a good, high left hand hold and a chest height right hand hold, and then I fired to the good edge and topped out. That felt roughly V4 (I guess?). If you can't reach that high left hand hold or have to start lower, it will be much harder, V5-8, I'd venture.

Location

It is left of Pop a Loose Nut and finishes straight up into the overlapped seam at the top (which is also the topout for Pop A Loose Nut).

Protection
