Description 

Very good route on solid rock. Between the second and third bolt is definitely the crux. The route is very balancy and slabby but fun. A little foot scumming goes a long way. This route can be a little mind boggling, think fast or suffer the pump.


Location 

This route is just to the right of Ghost of Cedar Creek.


Protection 

4 bolts and chain anchors.

I found this one harder than its neighbor to the left and harder than any other Palace 11a. Had multiple foot holds break between start and 2nd bolt. Regardless, good thin consistent climbing.
