Description
A direct start to Whats My Line that avoids the 4th class gully approach. It has some quite committing climbing and requires a got of ingenuity to protect the follower. Make sure to provide a means to protect the follower through the traverse.
Pitch 1 (5.10+ R, 130'): Start at a left-leaning ramp below a bolt. Clip it, then do the 10+ crux move. Clip another bolt, then traverse left and then up to another bolt nearby a right-leaning crack (5.9 R). Continue up and left to a two-bolt anchor.
Pitch 2 (5.9, 150'): Climb straight up, joining Whats My Line, stopping at a the three-bolt anchor.
Finish on What's My Line.
It is also possible to skip the 10+ move by traversing in from the right (5.6R).
