Description Suggest change

This route is a "sporty" lead and quite a historical benchmark for Rushmore. It holds the title as hardest established route at Mount Rushmore. Bolts are very well spaced! This route follows an orange streak to a six-inch bulge. Cooler temps may help. It is said that Todd Skinner climbed this route on a mid 50 degree day. As of 2023, this route is still unrepeated to my knowledge. A testament to Todd's strength and vision.

Location Suggest change

Once you find wrinkled rock, this route is the third route from the east on the south side across from a big roof.

Protection Suggest change

4 very spaced bolts. Stick clip first bolt would likely be a must....
