Description 

Technically a variation to Soul on Ice, this has enough good climbing to stand on its own. Easier than Soul on Ice. Heads left right above the bulge at, I believe, the 5th bolt of Soul on Ice. Steep, sequential climbing leads to the Young Cynics belay.

Location 

Start via Soul on Ice; veer left at the the 5th bolt, right above the roof bulge.

60m rope to descend.

Protection 

8 or 9 bolts, bolted anchors with chains. There are a couple of closely spaced bolts around where the variation veers off that may create rope drag; skipping a bolt and/or backcleaning one alleviates this problem.
