Description 

Follow a crack system with really fun moves to a good stance just below the steep face. Make a move up to clip the first bolt on the face and then figure out how to pull on the thin but positive holds to get up over the bulge. Clip two more bolts en route to the two bolt anchor.

Location 

Route #4 in Chen/Wehner, as shown on the East Side beta photo.

This climb is also listed as Beverly #5 (5.11b/c) and Jackson #4 (5.11c).

Protection 

Pro to 2.5", 3 bolts and a two bolt anchor. The bolt hangers are the "SMC death hangers" and could use an upgrading.
