Description 

Hands down, one of the contenders for the best route at World Wall I! Initial cruxes include the technicalities of Propaganda (.12c). From the anchors of Propaganda, tackle the bouldery bulge that leads up and trough a small and techy dihedral. Don't blow the clip at the top of this corner, as this will equate to BIG AIR. Continue through easier, yet big moves to a rest. Get the heart rate down, for the next 25ft is a pumpfest leading all the way to anchors, which are closely guarded by a sloppy rail.

Location 

Climbs the obvious and direct line up the left side of the wall following the black water streak. Start as for Propaganda and climb it in its entirety. Continue straight up for all the meat and spuds.

Protection 

This route is fixed beyond Propaganda proper.
