Description Suggest change

So this old obscurity has been retro bolted and though it is still moderate it doesnt seem like 5.5. I felt it was 5.7. Start just left of Men In White Suites and follow bolts over a couple bulges and finish up the weird ramp feature near the top of that route finishing at the top of the cliff above The Wimpy Gilman Ridge.

There are many moderate routes you should go out of your way for before you get to this one.

edit- At the crux bulge, climbing to the left of the bolts, using the jugs in the small corner ( can get a kneebar) before pulling back around right, will keep the grade in the lower range. Direct is fun too, but may be 5.7

Protection Suggest change

7 glue-in eyebolts and anchor. It is best to have your second clean the route on the way up. There are clippies, but you may want to rap rather than lower to save wear on your rope.
