This is an excellent climb for the grade and a bit dicier than Coyotes at Sunset. Thin, balancey holds on vertical rock take you through the crux. There are several variations including a nice, airy stem. A great warm-up when you've forgotten to call in your reservations for Coyote Crag.

New edition of Hidden Treasures has this climb incorrectly listed as Who's Will, but the rating (both grade and stars) are correct.

Not matter what you call it, what a great climb this one is!! I really had to think about what I was doing moving from the 2nd to 3rd bolt and the balanecy highsteps are really quite thrilling. I think for the grade, this may be my new favorite for Holcomb! Highly recommended!
