Description
A difficult (5.10ish) move to the first good hold. From here, follow the bolts as they traverser right along a good hand crack. The crux comes at the third bolt. After the crux climb quickly to fight the pump through sustained crimps and jugs. Watch out for the death block near the final bolt! It's marked with an X. There is a good hold just above it.
Location
As you round the corner near Slackline Pillar you will see bolts on the north face under a small roof. These bolts belong to a 12a mixed line called Death Storm. The second set of bolts is Great Expectations. Great Expectations shares the first bolt with a 10a called El Regalo. For the 11b, clip the first bolt then head right.
