Description 

Short Attention Span ascends the face just right of the right facing corner which gains access to the three sport lines that start off the top of the huge block. A few moves off of a good mono (no really, it's good!) gains a stance to clip the first bolt. It wouldn't be pretty to fall before this first clip. The technical crux comes at the third bolt with a few thin moves sideways, and then a second, height-dependant crux at the fourth bolt. From here its smooth sailing on 5.10 moves to the top. Anchors are up right of the last bolt. This line makes a good warm up for the other, more demanding routes on this wall.


Protection 

six bolts to a two bolt anchor with rap rings.

While its really the only "warm up route" for the other sport routes, its tough because of the crimpy nature.
