Description

Stickclip the second bolt, because the first bolt is chopped and not needed. A tough boulder problem start leads to easier, but not a "give me", finish. This route is a good challenge and tough for 11c and has 3 bolts.

Location

It is off the trail to the right before the turn off for The Slab.

Protection

3 old bolts to a 2 bolt anchor. This would be a good candidate for some new glue-ins and a new anchor location. I'd recommend rappelling to clean the route for the sake of your rope. It is probably not the best toprope due to the abrasive edge.
