Description

Start tends to the left...shares the same starting line as 'Indecision' then straight up.

Slabtastic! Fancy footwork and smearing is required for this seemingly low grade. Crux is passing the second bolt...convincing yourself to leave the heafty ledge.

You can't see a fourth bolt because there isn't one, it's a bit run out.

don't forget to take a look around when you reach the top...it took me three sends to actually take in the views.

Location

Passion Slab (Track 5) 20 meters past the 'fortress'. There are four climbs, the first two you come to are always covered in moss...but who needs 'em, you want Alternative Lifestyle and Indecision.
