Description
This route is the bolted line to the right of Elusive Wapati. There are 4 bolts to cover 90 feet of climbing, so it's a tad run-out without many "easy" sections.
Start to the right of Elusive Wapati, climb up and right for about 25 feet to the first bolt. Alternatively, climb up between the wall and the large boulder to the right of the start before tackling the wall straight on. From the first bolt, angle/ traverse to the left to the second bolt. After the second bolt, the route trends back to the right to the third bolt. The forth bolt is some distance straight up, and the finish is even farther. Overall, the climbing is fairly consistant.
This climb is very enjoyable, however, not best for your first 5.10 in the Platte, due to the run-outs. In fact your best first 5.10 in the Platte is a 5.9, and your best first 5.9 is a 5.8, and so on. You get the picture.
