Description 

A tough route for the grade, this route has interesting climbing up some varied climbing: sharp, black limestone edges, finger-jamming pockets, technical face, and bulges.

Climb the balancy start to the somewhat high first bolt up to the bulge. A "warm-up" crux to gain a couple pockets takes you to jugs before the final crux 2 bolts from the anchor.

Everyone I've spoken to agrees the crux is solid for the grade.

Location 

From the North Face, walk towards the cave that you walk through to get to the North East Face. You'll see several (6 as of this writing) bolted lines to the right of the cave on black limestone. This route is the 2nd from the far right of these.

Protection 

Bolts to a shared (with the climb to the right), 2 bolt chain anchor. Easy to TR with a couple directionals
