Description
Start under the roof, and climb through 2 draws before linking up with 4th bolt of The Strike and finishing the rest of The Strike.
**There is apparently another variation that goes right after the 4th bolt of The Strike for 2-3 more bolts before an anchor.
From my understanding, the first 2 bolts under the roof and the bolts on the right of the arete (after clipping bolt 4 of The Strike) were added by Matt Samet & Derek Peavey. This line allegedly goes at 12+ as well.
Location
Start under the roof on an obvious, left hand pocket, and either jump or use some intermediate holds (short person) or grab (tall person) a nice, right hand, flat, jug edge.
Climb up, and clip bolt 4 of The Strike (1st on the arete past the right-trending traverse).
Finish on The Strike.
