Description Like everything else around here, this problem has gone through several "editions" due to hold-breakage. What hasn't changed is the long, body-tension intensive moves, and the decidedly grovelly top-out. Used to be V6, but a critical crimp broke, and the moves feel a bit more desperate.
Location Femme Fatale Zone. Sit Start the cave, go straight up and over the bulge.
Protection Pad.

| This route went from V6 to V6+ to V6++. Now I think it's V7 (or harder). More breakage. What are you gonna do? A super-fun grovel. ANDY |

| Yeah, this one's bitchin, but hmmm, I disagree about a rating change. The bottom actually feels easier than it used to and the top high-step-to-pocket-then-grovel was always the 'business' anyway. I still say V6. It ain't as hard as Mister Witty or King Dinosaur. |

| Just to perpetuate climbing esoterica: the "crimp" on the top sloping dish broke. As Bob says, the upper moves were always the business, but when I topped this thing out today I wanted to vomit. |
