Description 

A fantastic sequence of long reaches on stellar rock is marred somewhat by poor hardware and scary runouts.

Stick clip the high first bolt, then make tenuous slab moves to gain the vertical wall. Athletic reaches and intriguing route-finding snake up the excellent dark panel to a large ledge. Down-climb back to the last bolt or climb sketchy-looking jugs up to the high first bolt of "Crowded House" and lower off the single bolt.

Location 

Climbs a dark panel to a mid-height ledge, three lines left of the Bull/Skinwalker start.

Protection 

Three bolts, no anchor. Lower off the last bolt, or the first bolt of Crowded House, or topout via Crowded House (5.12). There is a big runout between the 2nd & 3rd bolts, but the rock is excellent and the moves aren't too bad for the grade.
