One of my favorites at Red Wing. Its' the longest route on Barn Bluff. Once you get past the first 20ft of lie back flake its smooth sailing on big jugs.
Location
This route is the farthest to the right on the Annadonia wall. From the parking lot trail take a right when you see the American flag and keep going until you see the flake.
Protection
Bring at least a 50m rope. 9 Bolts to the anchors. Please use your own gear for top rope.

The anchors have been moved about 10 feet lower, eliminating the last two bolts, and some dirty chossy climbing. The 2nd to last bolt is about 5 inches below the new anchor.
I second Josh. The old anchors were positioned better. With the new ones it's impossible to avoid rope thrashing on a sharp edge.

Climbed this on July 8th, 2008. This is a great route, deffinately my new favorite at Barn Bluff. I replaced one of the carabiners at the anchor due to it being worn about halfway through on one end. A good reminder for me to always bring a couple spare biners and not to use them for belaying.
