Description The Gilded Lady, she lives!!! This overhanging classic is located just left of Bolts and Hoes. Climb jugs through bolt two, and then make a few long moves, followed by a large throw, and clip bolt three. Cop out left for a quick rest or continue firing up the overhang through the crux and make a photo finish throw to the lip. It's not over until you're on the ledge!!
Location It is just left of Bolts and Hoes on Prestige Worldwide Wall.
Protection 4 bolts to chain anchors.

| Nice route, guys! Got a chance to try this out out today, it was a lot of fun! Steeper than it appears when you first hike up the trail too. Fun, overhanging climbing that just keeps getting harder until you get to the crux toss for the lip! Awesome finish! |
