Description Begin Telekinesis with a relatively mild section of interesting 12- climbing on edges and ledges until you reach a mini-roof and a precarious shake. Clip up before drifting a bit right through the roof and immediately engage in a desperate, extremely thin crux with very few hold options. Continue crimping on bullet, beautiful, green colored stone for what seems like 2-3 hours. This upper section eases up a little, but there are no rests (especially not for your calves).
Location This is directly right of The Wasp.
Protection Quickdraws.

| "...relatively mild section of interesting 12-..." That statement and the look of this climb underlines how pushing the limits has taken this sport to an order of magnitude above what we used to even consider! |

| Anyone know what the heinously hard, blank dihedral is to the right of this line? |
