Description Suggest change

This route was put up on lead, in one day using hooks to place the bolts. I believe it is really well protected, and steep so injury from a fall any where in the 5.11 spot is very unlikely. A fall in the easy spot would be scary, but I doubt that injury would occur. The first five bolts are the meat and offer great movement. Some say that it is hard for the grade but I and others believe it will never be harder than 11 c/d. Have fun, give it all you got, and please for the sake of your own adventure try and do it with out hanging draws or previewing it. I believe that doing so would be silly, it is so well protected there is no reason not to just figure it out on your own, on lead! Write in and let us know what you thought of route. I think it will be the new classic of middle earth.

Protection Suggest change

This route is to the right of the top-rope/rappel route. It faces west more or less, and has a line of black bolts 7 of them, there is a run out after the route slabs out but it is only 5.6 or so and 2 bolts protect this area. The rap anchor is good for this route and you can still TR it that way. You can see all of the conn route when on top of this formation. Duet is just uphill of the saddle and runner rock is on the opposite side of the saddle just downhill.
