Description A couple of very hard moves (the hardest on the route) get you to a stance and the first bolt. Continue up the face aiming for the right edge of a "flake/block" then an arching crack. And onwards to the top passing a few more gear placements.
Location Flakeview Area. Left of Gunboat Diplomacy, near a tree.
Protection Bolt, gear and rap anchors on Silent Treatment.

| Okay, best I can guess this is "Flakeview". If this is incorrect, post up and it can be changed.
Also, a lot of crispy/flakey edges on this one. |

| The first bolt is on Flakeview and Silent Treatment. For Flakeview clip the first bolt, cam in a pocket and up the corner crack right of the bolt line to who knows were. Bring some leaver slings for the tree ledge. Good Luck. |

| I did not climb it, but when my friends did, we got pelted with broken rock fall. This happened 4 times with 1 person climbing the route! I was able to luckily dodge a rock, but a dog got hit with 1 piece. I recommend the climber, belayer and spectator to be on your toes for loose, friable rock that WILL come down on you! |

| Okay, hopefully the picture will help clear things up. Also you may be able to head to the rap rings that are on Silent Treatment. |
