Description

From the right side of the ledge this route starts in the chimney. If you don't go too deep in the chimney the rock will stay good and you'll find gear. about 30' up, a crack breaks-out straight right under a roof. follow this crack another 30' straight right to a bolted anchor. A single rope rap will get you off and from the bolted anchor you can toprope Over-Torqued too.

Location

This route is located on the far left side of the Main Wall. It is the 2nd route on the wall and it starts off of a ledge you need to scramble up to. Further left of the boulder/cave start of Over-torqued is a ramp that goes up and left. At the top of the ramp is a single 5.6 move to gain a ledge. some people might want to pitch this scramble out. This route starts on the right side of the ledge.
