Description
I really do think this is worth 4 stars, the finish is so sick! The climb begins as the first 4 bolts of "Or another", then continues on 5 more bolts toward fantastic sculpted roof above and right. The top portion of this line is exposed but the steep finish is super juggy and the move well protected.
Location
First bolted route on right side of wall, just to left of a couple roofs and crack system. You'll climb first 4 bolts of "Or another", clip that 4th bolt with an extended alpine draw, then continue up and right toward arete (careful of yucca - they will be trimmed) below the wave (roof), clipping more bolts, pulling the final steep wall on jugs. Much easier than it looks from the bottom. Scramble to the top and do the obligatory "Riding the wave" photo!
