Description Suggest change

What a MEGA line!

This route climbs the prow of the overhanging buttress that is one of the most iconic features in the Gunks.
Start off the GT just left of the 2nd pitch of Andrew between some trees. The initial boulder problem is tough and a little runout, and it brings you to the crucial #4 friend placement in the same horizontal as Ozone. After that, you’re not gonna hit anything but air when you fall.
multiple boulder problems with decent shakes between comprise the initial arete. Then you tackle the Twilight Zone roof crux, have a good shake and finish on super pumpy high-end 12 climbing to finish off.

Originally this was rated harder until an easier solution was found for one of the earlier boulder problems.
