Description
This climbs a thin seam in a very shallow, slabby left-facing corner, near the far left end of the wide slab. Climb the seam to the top and traverse right to the 5th bolt. There is a long but easy run-out after the 5th bolt.
Eddie Begoon initially aided this route (5.7A1), then quickly freed the line and rated it 5.9. The description for the route read, "Climb the short crack in the middle of the large friction wall." Given that the route is neither in the middle of the slab nor 5.9, I thought it was an unclimbed line and bolted it. I checked all three guidebook editions to ensure I had the most current edits to route descriptions before adding any "new" routes. The errors notwithstanding, I am sorry for retro-bolting an old line.
