Description 

What a great name! I wouldn't say I did any "soaring", but there definitely was some dynoing. A powerful and desperate boulder problem getting to the second bolt defines this route. Vastly easier and enjoyable jug hauling gets you to the top from there. The guidebook warns about blowing the second clip, but the clip can be made from huge jugs. I think you could make the argument that most routes anywhere would put you in a bad spot if you blew the second clip!


Location 

This is two routes left of Bucket Slave.

Bolts, stick clip.

Does this route start from the block out left? is it Dyno-soar?

This should get retrobolted. Deck if you blow the first, deck if you blow the second, deck if you blow the third. Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?

Keep an eye out for any more anchor-fixing events down there and be sure to put that idea forward then too.
