Description It's often said about this route... "I've never been kicked off by holds that big"... Very true, everything is good.. there is a crux, it's not much harder than the rest of the moves on the route, just straight up enduro climbing. Fight the pump past the crux on huge holds. It's about a 15 degree overhanging.
Location Right side of the Load. Start on top of a small boulder, look for the line of people.
Protection bolts...

| One of my least favorite routes at the 'Lode (not load) which is sad considering how many times I've climbed it. |

| This route is actually called "Chainsaw Massacre" in the Ray Ellington guidebook. |

| by 15 degrees, I'm assuming you mean past vertical 90, thus a 105 degree angle climb. Actually thought it was more like 110 or 115, as most that wall seems... |
