Description
Same start as Plaque Attack until first bolt, then up left side of tooth feature past two more bolts, then over tooth and to the summit. Climbing straight through the bolt line without stepping right midway through the tooth feature--at the upward facing flake--increases the difficulty (and fun) to the 5.9 range.
