Description 

Very enjoyable, albeit brief, climbing up a swell with perfect incuts and a laughably fun, well-protected, foot-flailing dyno to cap off this route.

Like the neighboring "Sir Edmund Drillary", this short, fingery route is a great way to pass the time while waiting in line for the classic lines of Upper Orange Crush.


Location 

The left-most route on Upper Orange Crush.


Protection 

4 bolts and two bolt anchors.

i thought this was a pretty fun climb... way better than sir edmund drillery to the right... this had great movement and if it was more than a boulder problem i think it would be a classic...

First Ascentionist - Chris Smith, August 1998

Fun, long, dynamic moves, at the top end of the cliff where there is usually a breeze and with a great view.

Yeah, I thought this is a nice climb in a scenic setting, just wish it were longer. Fun bouldery moves on a rope. Like Lee said, WAY better than the 11a to its right.

Yeah gentlemen I agree with you if this was the top of a 70 foot climb it would be classic but it is a great route which I encourage everyone to get on!
