Coming out of the Crux

Description Climb through fun jugs on Cool Ranch flavor and then traverse into the Taco Chips Rest at the 5th Bolt where you are then met with a balancy crux on small side pulls, pockets, and crimps. This route is fun, and exciting as you side pull and high step your way through a pumpy dash for the chains. Climb up Cool Ranch. Put a long draw at bolt #4. Clip #5. Traverse right and clip the Taco Chips bolt to the left of the rail and then back clean bolt #5 of Cool Ranch. No new bolts were added with this link up. Enjoy!
Location Starts left of the direct Taco Chips start on Cool Ranch Flavor, Right of 9 Gallon Buckets
Protection 10 bolts, 2 bolt anchor

| Seemed pretty soft to me. Still fun, enjoyable, and a logical step up from other 12s on the wall. Just a teeny bit harder than Full Magic Light IMO and probably a hair pumpier. |

| My experience disagrees with the teeny bit harder than Full Magic Light. In terms of sheer number of goes, Doritos took easily twice as much work for me to send. The hand and footholds on Doritos are consistently much smaller than FML with few rests.. Both are rad. |
