Description Suggest change

Fun line... the descent/cleaning is annoying. See notes at the end.

Start up the dihedral, then once the crack peters out, venture across the slab.

Once you leave the crack, you have only 2 small pocket placements on the roof before you reach the bolt line of Stego Slab. Follow this to the anchor, then figure out how to clean (good luck). The crux is between the first pocket, and the bolt line. If you fall here, it's a pendulum (bad) on slab (ouch) on a relatively small piece (yikes!).

Descent: Cleaning the gear while on lower or rappel is a giant pain in the ass because of the traverse. Your best bet is probably to use the anchor to Stego Slab or Stego Crack and belay up a second to clean. Though, keep in mind that once the second cleans the pro from the first pocket, they face a decent pendulum if they fall.

Location Suggest change

Google maps link (coordinates: 38.5512895, -109.5986418)
To the right of Schoolroom slabs. Near the north end of the pullout.

Obvious dihedral with an offwidth crack at the bottom, arching up and to the right, closing into a roof (no crack). Runs into Stego Slab at the end.

Protection Suggest change

Cams for the crack, small gear for pockets under the roof, 3 Qds (maybe just 2 i dont remember)
