Description
This is one of several classic lines at Moon Hill (which has more than its fair share of great routes). Like many of its close relatives to its right, the main challenge with Artemis is just climbing through the jugs and through the burn. It does pitch back to a bit more overhanging near the top, so that probably qualifies as the crux considering all of the overhanging jugs you've already had to climb through.
This is a great route with great stone. Its also easy to top rope, and a very safe lead -- so a good route for someone working on this grade. For those aiming at harder lines, this is probably the most popular "warm up" at Moon Hill.

Location
On the main wall of Moon Hill ( through the arch after you approach, walk up the hill just a touch to an obvious couple of trails that cut left and through some bushed to the back side of the arch ). Its on the right side, 3 routes left of Luna Nascente and 1 route right of Apollo. Its 2 routes to the left of the obvious flowstone stalagtite blob, near the detached pinnacle.
