Description Suggest change

A subtle yet eye-catching feature tucked away on the far right end. Locate the line by spotting the rounded arete just beyond the inside corner of Swordfighter. The crux happens right off the ground so definitely stick clip the first bolt. Tackle a sequence of strenuous moves on indistinct holds that would seem more at home on a boulder. Perhaps a V4 intro.  From a stance move up on more reasonable ground, perhaps stout 5.10 from here to the top. Excellent climbing the whole way!

It is possible to sneak around the Crux start by starting a good bit to the right and walking a ledge back left. This keeps the route in the 5.10 range. 

Location Suggest change

On the far right end of the cliff past the obvious inside corner of Swordfighter look for a rounded arete a little like Lonesome dove. That's the rig. 

Protection Suggest change

5 bolts to ring anchor.
