June 1st, 2017:The Salt Lake Climbers Alliance (SLCA), the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church), and Access Fund announce the signing of an unprecedented lease for 140 acres in Little Cottonwood Canyon (LCC). The parcel, known as the Gate Buttress, is about one mile up LCC canyon and has been popular with generations of climbers because of its world-class granite.
The agreement secures legitimate access to approximately 588 routes and 138 boulder problems at the Gate Buttress for rock climbers, who will be active stewards of the property. The recreational lease is the result of several years of negotiations between LDS Church leaders and the local climbing community.
Access Note: The climbs on the Church Buttress above the vault as well as the Glen boulders that have been traditionally closed will remain closed.
Please help us steward this area and leave no trace.

Description
SDS on the right side of the cave on a low left hand crimp and a right hand side-pull crimp. Make 2-3 fun moves to the jug then traverse left ending on "Shrimps".
The LCC guide has this at V10 starting on the jug, but according to Mike Beck the original line starts sitting on low crimps. While the low start doesn't change the grade, it adds 2-3 fun moves that are worth doing. So not sure why anyone would decide to cut those moves out.
