| The route is perfectly leadable on gear. It takes plenty of tcus and cams smaller than #1 for the first half and nuts for the flake. |

| Don't know why this route is listed as a TR. It was flashed by Danny on lead, and as has been noted it takes good clean gear, primarily small and medium wires and cams as I recall. Belay from the convenient tree on top of the scenic buttress. This is one of the earliest routes completed at Bubba City. |
