Description Suggest change

Climb the cool patina features tucked behind the tree up to the second bolt, then take a hard right and traverse past a couple more bolts keeping them at or above shoulder level until it's reasonable to head straight up again. Continue angling upward to the right up the featured slab, with gear placements available off to the left in the corner. Higher on the slab you'll find a thin crack with more options for gear before reaching the chains. Due to the traversing nature of the route, probably best to have a second clean the route.

Location Suggest change

Located directly below Shock and Awe. Look for the bolts and beginning of the route tucked  behind a tree on the east side of the gully leading up to Shock and Awe.

Protection Suggest change

4 bolts, single rack up to 1.5 inches, chain anchor.
