Description Start this route by clambering up a massive and solid flake. After clipping the first bolt, you can safely scamper to the top of a nearly vertical face climb that is not without some fun moves.
Location Located in the Red Light District between the less intimidating start of Mammplitude to the left and the right-facing dihedral of Timeless Christian Values to the right, The Young and the Restless takes you out over the deck for some exposed moves on comforting jugs before you clip the first bolt.
Protection 4 bolts, shuts. Be sure your belayer anchors to something so you don't both tumble off the belay ledge which is about 10 feet off the deck.

CONDITION REPORT | The upper belay ledge is actually a large refridgerator-sized square-ish boulder in a base of dirt. As of 2/9/13 it was loose in place and would rock about 2" from body movement. Be very careful. |

| It's also easy to belay from the lower ledge, just be mindful of the corner if you take a ride. Blowing the first clip will make for an ugly fall onto rough terrain. |
