Description
Until the FFA it was popular to do this route as a two-pitch 5.10d and then rap.
Pitch 1 - climb past three bolts(5.9) on slopey, ledgey features and belay.
Pitch 2 - climb past five bolts(5.10d) the last three being a tightly spaced bolt ladder.
Pitch 3 - climb past four bolts(5.12a) and belay at a shared anchor with Fort Knox.
You can rappel from here of climb several 5.7 crack pitches to the top.
