Description 

This route as some fun (although painful) moves getting up to the second bolt. The crux is between the first and second bolt as you lieback a thin seam until you can get a painful finger lock and reach the jugs just under the second bolt. The climbing above the second bolt is easy and forgettable.

Location 

second route from the left of the rock, shares the last two bolts and the anchors with "Goldfinch".

Protection 

4 bolts, 2 chain anchor.
