Description 

This is a short sport route with a crux between the 1st and 2nd bolt.

Location 

The route is the second bolted route from the right on the Solar Slab. It starts just left of a large juniper tree then climbs up and left to the anchors.

I recommend buying Stewart Green's Red Rocks guidebook at the Garden of the Gods Visitor's Center for complete route descriptions and maps of all routes.

Protection 

4 bolts to a 2-bolt anchor.
