Description 

This route was created for someone trying to break into Trad climbing It protects well and is easy to climb with great gear placements . All the starts are fun. the 5.5 start is perfect for people trying to break into leading trad. The 5.8 start has no pro but is a really fun way to start the climb. I like this approach better then the original start to Blue Collar Crack

Location 

This route sits below the blue collar crack on the lizard head buttress.There are 3 starts to this route depending on what you want to do. Down from Blue Collar Crack and Zesty you will find a 5.8 slab/chicken head start 4 moves. Around the corner there is a 5.5 start and if you walk along the base of the rock you can do a long traverse into the steeper part.5.5-5.6

Protection 

It is all Traditional Gear standard rack for the beginner nuts, tcu's and hand sized cams 2 bolt anchor on top. great belay for Blue Collar Crack
