Description 

Begin just right of Brian's Song (5.10c) and punch past the first bolt (5.11) via a strenous lock-off to reach easier moves past horizontals and a ledge just after the third bolt. Above the ledge romp up easy moves (5.9) to the anchors at the very top of the wall.

The climbing on this route is decent and once past the boulder problem crux is much easier making this a good candidate for somebody's first 5.11 route. Like it's neighbor to the left (Brian's Song), this route doesn't have the sustained nature characteristic of the more classic routes on this wall.

Location 

Between Brian's Song on the left and Three Stooges on the right.

Protection 

5 bolts, shuts
