Description Suggest change

A blocky, slabby start with two bolts leads to a leftward traverse into a featured crack. Protect the crack with big gear (range of .75-#3) to have a piece of protection between bolts 2 and 3. Once you clip bolt three, flip the switch and GRRR your way onto the face to your right. Follow a right-leaning lip with fun movement to a slab finish.

The bolt and trad gear under the roof will likely cause some rope drag. The route is short enough that minimal management is necessary but it's worth a mention.

NOTE: This route is the first to get wet during the rainy months. As a result, it needs some gardening and excavating at the beginning of each season. Bring some gloves, clippers, and a brush to scrub the mud off the holds at the beginning of the dry season--particularly at the slab at the top. The route can be accessed from the Hanging Judge anchors which are above and slightly to the right of the Scottish Variation anchors.

Location Suggest change

This is the bolt line directly to the left of Hanging Judge. 

Protection Suggest change

Five bolts. Crack protection between bolts 2 and 3 takes any piece of gear between .75 - #3 (.75 at the bottom, widening to #3 at the top). There are two bolts and chains at the top. We put two wire gate carabiners on the chains to temporarily equip the route, but note that those are not a permanent fixture.
