Description 

One of the more technical lines at LCC this line follows great limestone up a slightly overhanging section of stone.

Begin just left of the double black streaks of "Black Plague" Make easy but cryptic moves off the ground to a nice shake at the first bolt. Thinning holds and big moves lead past the next few bolts to a devious mono section. Surpass this and engage in the tricky crux with bad holds and technical footwork. After the crux several rest jugs are encountered allowing a good rest for the final easier but still tricky moves on uninspiring rock.

Location 

In the middle of the Mad Cow wall. Just left of double black streaks of "Black Plague". To the left is "Rabid Dave".

Protection 

5 Bolts to Anchors. The anchors consist of unequalized rap hangers with biners. Some chain would greatly improve the anchors setup.
