Description Suggest change

An eliminate that uses the beautiful pinch on the left side of the Alien face. Starts at Alien Stand and goes up the face between the arete and the major crack going up the face. The crack and any holds that are part of the crack are on, but any holds on the face beyond the crack are off. I did use the ok hold on the end of the last vertical portion of the crack (top green circle on the beta photo). It's certainly arguable about whether that's part of the crack or the right face. I was basically just avoiding using the huge jug past the crack. The left arete is fully off. 

It's certainly contrived, but has nice moves and is something to try if you've already done the obvious lines.

Location Suggest change

Start as per Alien Stand on two large sidepull/underclings in the center of the face.

Protection Suggest change

Tall, but it's a flat landing zone.
