Description
Start between Tits Up and Muscle Beach. The first bolt is quite high, so stick clipping the first bolt is wise (requires a long stick). The climb opens with a punchy duo of pockety and crimpy boulder problems up to very welcome deep pockets as it veers up and left to cross Muscle Beach.
After a good and nearly no-hands rest, it accelerates up and slightly left through a thought provoking face with decent edges and pockets (once you find them).
The afterburning forearms kick in as you reach the break that makes you think you may actually get a rest...not so lucky, as the final section leads you through a series of delightful pinches, sidepulls, underclings, and pockets to reach the anchors.
This is a great, sustained route in the tradition of Tits Up, though possibly less cruxy and more sustained.
