Description Suggest change

A great deal of body tension and fancy footwork will be required to overcome this crux bulge.

Start up The Cobb until able to join the pebbly hand crack splitting the face to the right, about 30 feet up. A short bit of crack climbing leads to a technical sequence to a pair of jugs (and gear) at the base of a bulge. The baffling seam splitting the bulge doesn’t offer much in the way of holds — scratch, claw, and friction over it anyway. Once established on the new face, the anchors are in sight … but don’t blow it!

I have climbed most of my hardest Sunset routes on hot, sticky summer days with little issue. If you want this one to feel remotely like its guidebook 12- grade, however, waiting for colder temps would be advisable.
