Description

Climb the corner with the crack, using more jugs outside of the crack itself. Follow closely spaced bolts past interesting holds up into an amazing undercling hole in the roof. Work your way around to the right to a stance. Follow edges and slopers up a shallow vertical scoop to an unlikely jug and a spectacular exit. 

Location

At the very far right end of the crag this route follows a 10 foot crack to a ledge then follows bolts past an obvious large underling hole then around the corner and out of sight. 

Protection

7 bolts to anchor

[Hide Comment] First day ever at Russell. This route was my highlight! Sustained, varied climbing, and multiple spots where "just going for it" is nicely rewarded. Add in some adventure...I snapped a palm-sized hold off while pulling to the chains, held it in my hand bewildered for a second, put it down on the ledge, finished the route, and grabbed it as a souvenir on the way down!
