Description Suggest change

Despite it's ugly gulley to start, once you pull onto the pin proper, this climb is engaging and committing until the last move to the summit.  A couple "go for it" cruxes guard generally good holds.  

Location Suggest change

From the road, this climb is just uphill (to the left) of Quartz Jester.  It starts in the water gulley and once you can't climb that any further, step right onto the King Pin formation proper.  You may wish to bring a larger piece of gear or two to protect the start.  

Protection Suggest change

Bring about eight quickdraws to do the climb and one shoulder length sling and three locking beaners to make a hanging belay station at a very nice set of anchor bolts.
