Description

A link-up. Begin as for Blackjack, but after clipping its 3rd bolt hand traverse right past an undercling hold and clip an independent bolt (once this bolt is clipped, you may want to unclip the previous bolt to reduce rope drag). Continue right to join Dugout at its 3rd bolt. A slightly more difficult start than the regular route.

Location

Located between Blackjack & Casey at the Bat.

Protection

14 bolts to 2 open shuts.
