Description
This steep grainy face is really good. Pretty sustained to the fourth bolt then jugs. I fiddled a lame #5 orange Metolius tcu into the horizontal, but the move to clip the third bolt wasn't that bad.
Protection
4 bolts, all 3/8" button heads that seem good, the second is a spinner and could use replacing. You could try frustratingly to place a TCU in the horizontal between the second and third bolt, good luck!
Gear anchor 1"-3". Descend north hard down climb or a short rap off a horn to the north 30'.
