Another beautiful day in Colorado!

Moving left at the first crux. You can go straight up here but it is more runout that way. Searching for pro keeps the runouts 25 ft or less. Good green or blue Alien out to the right just before the end of P1 avoids the above mentioned 35 ft runout. Save a yellow Alien/TCU & 0.75 Camalot for P2's crux. Oh yeah, rack on your L side for P2 so you don't do the Walrus move! No RPs required for either pitch.
