Description 

Short but surprisingly sustained/pumpy route.

Start with a tricky traverse right into good underclings but delicate feet. Then move upwards into some flakes and get a semi-rest in the sudepulls/underclings of a beautiful arch. The starting traverse and the final crimps are difficult, but the crux for most is finding good feet and making a big move out of the undercling arch to a crimp. Gave it a PG13 because the cruxy sections are on delicate feet and most falls occur as a result of slipping feet and are not so controlled. Depending on your beta there is a possibility to swing into or hit the platform to the right.

Location 

Shares chains with Mona, starts 6 feet left of the platform in the corner.

Protection 

3 bolts to 2 bolt anchor with chains.
