Description Suggest change

This is an extension/variation on The Roid. After clipping the last bolt on that route, instead of cutting left to the anchor, continue along the crack/seam through the steepest part of the cave. Kneebar past the massive boulder apparently hanging in space, and turn the lip at the furthest right notch. There are three ways to finish: walk off, scramble over to Apex Predator's anchor, or reach right and clip the final bolt on Predator X. The first two options lead to horrendous rope drag.

Protection Suggest change

Permadraws through The Roid, then a single rack from 0.1 to 0.4 at minimum. Doubling this is probably wise though as you are never terribly far from the ground.
