Description
Scramble up and climb some nice moderate 5.11 moves on rock that feels more like sandstone than limestone. It has good moves with some rather open-hand stuff instead of pockets. The seam that curves towards Lats picks up some nice crisp corners to keep the difficulty lower than advertised. This felt very soft for 5.11d and would drop a grade or two if it was at Devil's Head or Lumpy.
Location
This is on the blood red wall that hosts "Lats Don't Have Feelings" and just right is a curving line that starts off a block.
Protection
9 bolts. Per Travis Bieber: this shares the first 2 bolts with Lats Don't Have Feelings and then it moves up and right to its anchors.
