Description 

Begin as for Sofa Kingdom and find the first bolt near the pine tree on the left. After the 2nd bolt, place the red+green aliens to protect a hard move past the flake. #1 Camalot and easy climbing leads to two more bolts on the arete. Hard move at the 2nd bolt, then you can place a yellow Alien-size in a horizontal crack. After one more move (place a #2 Camalot to protect any followers), easy climbing leads right to the Sofa Kingdom anchors.

Probably harder than Sofa Kingdom.


Location 

Begin just left of Sofa Kingdom.


Protection 

Red+yellow+green Aliens, #1+#2 Camalot, 4 bolts.

Is this the route with the tan-colored bolts to the left of Sofa Kingdom? Not bad, but I thought I remembered more than 4 bolts? Did you add a few up top?

Tony,
Should only be 4 bolts. I thought about a separate anchor from Sofa Kingdom, but have not done so.
