Description

Start up a slightly sickle-shaped finger/hand crack. Follow the crack/flake system through a mildly overhanging bulge to reach the slab above. Continue up the slab, climbing just left of the protection bolt. When you are almost at the top, traverse a bit left to finish at the Border Incident belay anchor.

Location

This route is located near the left side of the left sector of the cliff -- just a few meters right of Border Incident.

Protection

The route can be protected with a selection of small/medium stoppers and cams (BD ranging from 0.2 to 2). There is one protection bolt in the slab section, about halfway up.
