Description

Leftmost line on the Clamshell Wall. Heel hook the opening crux off the big boulder, clip the bolt (stick clip might be advisable, though you can place a small cam at the lip before beginning). Move left on easy ground and blast to the top up a clean strip of white rock. Second mini-crux near the top.

Location

If you don't like the big starting move, step off the right end of the block to the hanging corner (this is the start of Ariel's Brassiere) then go hard left to join Hooker. Done this way, it's a very fun 5.8.

Protection

There are two bolts at the top of the route but they are BELOW the actual top. You can lean over to set up a TR but rapping from there is not a good idea at all. Topping out above the bolts is safe but would certainly add another crux.
