Description 

Great overhanging climb that keeps your attention the whole way. The crux is definitely the roof on the first pitch. Climb the broken corner/face to a great right to left facing crack (medium size gear/ #2) to a ledge. Protect left and/or make high delicate moves to the bolt(crux). Clip and surmount the roof past 2 more bolts to a 2 bolt anchor. The crux could be serious business. Take your time and commit to the moves.

P2. Put on the crimp gloves and climb straight up the thin face above past three bolts and some natural gear (cams/tricams) to easier climbing to the right end of a ledge above and a two bolt anchor.

Location 

Take the trail up and left along the cliff band. Stay right when the trail splits and go up hill. Wanderlust will be in front of you. This route is located 2 routes left of Wanderlust. Look for the right to left trending crack about 25' up...hard to see unless your standing a little back.

2 raps with 1 60m, or 1 with double 60's.

Protection 

Medium size gear cams/tricams and draws. Bolted Anchors.
