Description

This short strength-y 5.11 is probably tied with Pee Wee's for the best route at Penitentiary Hollow. From the start, traverse up and left, crossing over hands on big ledge holds. Surmount the small bulge up to a big hueco and shake it out. The crux comes right after this, a powerful move up and right to a small gaston, and then a few more crimps to the finish.

Location

The chalked up route on the far right end of the big overhang wall. It is directly left of the cryptically named "Gandolf Won," Mineral Wells's only purported 5.12.
