Description
The bolts on this climb are pretty solid and look like they were done recently. There is a two bolt anchor about 8 or 9 bolts up, but you can continue the climb up to the right from that another 3 or 4 bolts to the rightmost anchor at the crag (be careful there are some large, loose blocks by the anchor). Bring at least 10 QDs. I brought 11 and skipped 2 bolts, and I had just enough to get to the upper anchor. The route is intended to be face climbed up a pretty bare slab, some good manteling movements on slopey foot holds, and pure, thin footwork slab at the top. The only drawbacks are that it is very dirty and some flakes are quite suspect. I believe someone suggested this route was 5.10a, so that's what I rated it, but that may be a bit inflated.
Location
Scramble up the hill about 20 feet to the right of Finger Crack to a short arete where you'll see the first bolt about 12 feet up. I believe the intended start is to follow the crack system up on the left side of the arete, but the arete can be climbed to make the first bolt a tad easier.
