Description
The start to this route is tricky and the rock is softer than most of the rock in the area, so be mindful up to the roof (hint don't get tricked into the off width to the left). Pull the roof to the right and cruise the rest of the way to the anchors while enjoying the view.
Location
Not too hard to find because it’s the only route in the area with glue in’s at the start.
Protection
12 or 13 bolts to rap anchors. It’s not a mixed route so no gear is needed. (We might be adding a perma draw below the roof)

Be careful of crumbly rock above the ledge/3rd bolt. Otherwise solid rock.
A healhook on the ledge and left hand on horn helps clipping 4th bolt.

Climbing up til the roof was chossy, hard to trust any feet. Got more solid after that, but still kicked off some chunks. May 21, 2021
