Description 

Start sitting in a hole, using a good left and decent right crimp in a crack feature. Stab your way into a good left hand crimp and a vicious right hand quartz razor. A big move to a jug, some tree and boulder avoidance technique, and an easier but tallish topout finish the process. Hard, sharp, and a little squeezed.

Location 

Around the corner and in a hole to the right of Bejesus. Head up the hill behind Nemesis Traverse following vague social trails. Tricky to find unless you know what you're looking for.

Protection 

A couple pads and a spotter are a good idea. There's a sharp block right behind you when you're in the crux.
