Description
Mike's dad Harvey died a week before he, Kathryn Dyer and Kelli Hartzell cleaned this route. They innitally cleaned the route to the right even tho it had already been cleaned but they came back again to clean this route so Mike felt it fitting to name the route after his dad and the fact that they gotten lost and cleaned the wrong route. Mike's dad was a truck driver who almost never got lost except in life in general and at the end, he got lost quite a bit, but seemed to always have a sense of some direction.
Location
Via Farrata wall is to the right of Thunderdome. Walk up the trail towards Thunder Dome. Turn right at the wall, walk for about 15 feet and look up for a cable. Climb up and clip your leash to the cable and use it to traverse along the ledge. When you get to a 2" tree sticking out 4' up the wall you are at the climb. The cable only goes for roughly 100 feet. Currently there is no rappel anchor on the ledge so getting down requires you to traverse back.
