Description 

Starts to the right of Dr. Octagon, and shares anchors with that route as well. Climb up chunky rock towards a seam in a very obtuse open dihedral. Look for a pin (that you can see from the ground), and continue up the seam passing edges, and finger pods.

Location 

Middle of the right wall, look for pin at 1/3 height in seam.

Protection 

Small/ medium TCUs, small/medium wires.
