Description This route is considered the warm up at the Rat Cave. The crux comes at the beginning, a long lock off utilizing an undercling pinch to another pinch. The route follows a small left leaning channel to the first set of anchors (12a). Continue on and head straight up past another 2 bolts through more lock offs and pinches.
Location Second route on the right.
Protection 7 bolts. Usually fixed draws on the second half.

| The 12b grade reflects the difficulty to the 2nd anchor. |

| Finishing on Tuffnerd is a nice finish to the Warmup at about the same grade. This should be called "Warmnerd" and Tuffnerd into the Warmup "Toughen Up"? |

| It'd be a hard 12a to the first anchors. Consensus these days seems to be 12b to the first and harder (12c/d?) to the second. |
