Description Suggest change

Much like a Chameleon, this route changes it's colors. 

This is possibly the best route at Lizard Tail, it's a fantastic climb with incredible positioning at a moderate grade. The climb is comprised into two separate sections. The first is a slabby sport climb while the second half is pure sedona trad route. There's handjams, crimpers, roofs, slabs, jugs, smears, and a secure layback. This climb may only be roughly 80 feet long, but it feels much longer. 

I'd recommend this route to any moderate leader, the gear is solid and the exposure is awesome.

Far right on lizard tail. 

Protection Suggest change

6 bolts, Alpine draws, nuts and singles from #.3-#3 camalot. Doubles from #.5-#2. More experienced leaders can get by with a single rack.
