Description This route is located at the extreme right (north) end of the wall. Follow a large curving flake past a bolt, over a bulge - crux -, past three more bolts to bolted anchors. This route shares anchors with Mission Accomplished.
Location As with all routes on this wall, you can get to the anchors by simply walking up the left (south) end of the formation. The base of the climb starts on top of the ledge at the far right (north) end of the wall.
Protection Four bolts to bolted anchors.

| Great place to take beginners for some TR'ing but also a decent route worth stopping by for on your way to something else. This entire wall needs a bit more traffic as A LOT of stuff was crumbly. |

| Only found a couple bolt hangers at the top. They were set far enough back from the edge to make me concerned about not being able to pull the rope after rapping. Belayed my 2nd up to the top and we walked over to another set of anchors. |

| Only one hanger on top now. The other was gone. This route is not too good. |

| On 1/14/10, the LVCLC replaced the missing bolt at the anchor on this route with a 1/2" x 3.5" 5-piece bolt. |
