Description
Really good and fun route to combine in a day with Classic Corner with fun movements over somewhat run-out climbing between the bolts. The moves feel pretty so don't stress about the bolts too much!
Location
This route is the south facing feature about 50 feet right of Classic Corner of Calico and just right of a chossy corner! Look for the four bolts up the face!
Protection
4 Bolts to the fixed anchors at the top!

Some donk added a retro bolt about 12" below the first lead bolt. Sure was nice of someone to protect that gripping 5.2 move at the start.
Note: If you are going to place an insultingly useless retro lead bolt please have the courtesy to at least clean off the rock dust after drilling. Neglecting this step not only creates an unsightly stain on the rock but also draws attention to the shit job you just completed. Thanks.
One of the poeple who did the FA put that bolt in.

The first time I did this route I took along a few small pieces (tcu's, a few stoppers) and did place one piece to supplement the bolts. Probably overkill, but it made me feel better. There are a few slightly suspect holds so that extra piece was reassuring. This is a fun, worthwhile climb.
