Description
A new route that climbs the wall just left of Colostomy route. Climb up dirty, lichen covered, and mucky big edges to a big horizontal. Reach straight up and side pull the neat little mini arête with both hands then bring the feet up as high as possible. Stab for the obvious little left hand in-cut found in the next small horizontal cleave - match hands - shift feet and finally reach over into the hanging crack to the left. Jam and side pull up the cool fissure to the ledge. Pull the small edges on the outside corner and hoist up to the finishing platforms all while staying away from the small tree and grassy ledge to the left.
Location
Cleo's Amp over on the upper rim wall on the left side as a climber is looking up from Cleo's Needle. Found on the wall between the routes The Queen's Clam and Colostomy
Protection
Protection is very good. Bunch up a couple good hand sized cams in the horizontal. Place a #0 Metolius 3 cam in the hanging crack below the small block hold that ends the crux move. Place large cams in the upper crack. All good. You can protect the first 15 feet with gear placements in the start Colostomy.
