Description
This route, once known as the softest 5.11a in the Monument, finally got downgraded in the guidebooks but don't let that stop you from getting on this fun line.
Scramble up easy terrain to reach a right-facing corner system (5.9) which leads up and onto a ledge. Higher, climb another right-facing corner system with a low crux off the ledge.
