Description

This is a fun route and climbs some of the better quality rock on the wall. Start by climbing the ramp to clip the first bolt. A short crux section leads to easier climbing. 

Location

Left of Sonoran Moonfire, LMBH climbs up to the obvious roof at the top of the cliff.

Protection

Four bolts plus two bolt anchor and rap rings.

[Hide Comment] I'm not sure what variations have been done before on this face on TR (presumably many of them). The line that we followed trended generally left at the start and would be poorly protected by a toprope from the existing anchors. We stayed on the higher quality rock and cleaned off quite a bit of loose stone. I thought this was a pretty fun line and hopefully others enjoy as well! Jan 29, 2021

[Hide Comment] Thanks for bolting this! I can't wait to try it out on lead. I top roped this variation following nearly the same path you did and it was fun climbing. I was hoping the area was hiding more lines, but besides the right hand side "project", this was the last obvious line. Feb 5, 2021
