Description
This is the first route to the right of Walk on the Wild Side and, in my opinion, superior to it. It's runout a bit - particularily getting to the first bolt, but that only adds to the interesting character of the route. I've led in three or four times.

This route was originally known as Negro Girls. Click here for a lengthy and colorful discussion on that topic.
