Description
Climb the rounded arete to the first bolt and work your way to the right side of the arete where a short section of crack is found. Climb the arete or right of the arete, with the ability to stem across the corner past a couple of additional bolts. A route identification tag is found on the fourth bolt. A gap between bolts can be protected with gear. Above the route steepens but the holds are huge.
