Description Suggest change

The sort of obscure yet high quality pitch that makes the Gorge so worthwhile.

Starts with an easy, runout slab which takes you to a ledge at the base of a headwall. Clipping the first bolt on the headwall can be a production if you don't have a long reach. Once that bolt is clipped, launch into the headwall where you will find sustained, intricate climbing all the way to the anchors.

This route was unpublished until the 10th edition so as of this writing, still needs a little buffing.

Location Suggest change

On the right side of Gotham City, two climbs to the right of the obvious chalk highway of Flex Your Head.

Protection Suggest change

9 bolts. People shorter than 5'8" may want a supplemental piece to protect clipping the first bolt, though I don't know what that piece would be. Something in the 1" range.
