Description 

Technical edging is the definition of this route, follow the bolts straight up starting to the right of the offwidth's start. Crux is going through the 3-4bolts and slightly insecure topout. Well protected though in the bolted section.

Location 

Route starts down and right of the bolt that is to the right of the Offwidth start, and about 15' up. Rap down when at the top.

Protection 

There are 5 bolts, 1 at the start of the climb and the other 4 on the upper face. Bolted anchor at the top. Gear would be nice to protect the last moves over the darker colored bulge, above the first bolt. Pro would be in 0.75C4 range.
