Description
This climb is essentially a direct start to the route House Of The Homeless that joins that route at it's second bolt.
Start down and right from HotH and lieback the edge of a wide crack to reach a high first bolt which protects more liebacking along the edge of the narrowing crack (crux) to reach a second bolt. Higher, join HotH for it's near-vertical crux and shared anchors with that route.
- Originally lead without the lower two bolts and later climbed with the added bolts thinking it was a first ascent. The climbing is fun, even if a little a little contrived, but overall a good addition to the area for the sport climbing crowd.
