Hey anybody know what this route is? I can't remember where it was taken, but its pretty visually interesting. Any ideas? I think it may have been between Bank North wall and the 2150 Wall somewhere.... my memory is not so good

This photo shows my buddy dropping gang signs while resting on the route itself

I'd agree with Ben. Ha! The guy in the first pic looks to be avoiding the crux.

Hey thanks for the information guys, appreciate it. I was trying to find it so I could go back to it. I'll try that other route out as well!

My buddy wasn't avoiding the crux, we were still trying to figure it out, so instead of wasting energy or coming back down, he just climbed over left. We both ended up getting the redpoint on it after we figured the moves out.

You might want to look at the picture again, neither draw is backclipped.
