Description
This routes follows a black streak just left of Neutron Brew. An independent, direct -- but unobvious -- line ascending the 5.10 wall.
Start 10' left of the M-shaped blocks on committing moves with tricky-to-find protection and stay in the black streak left of the alcove (a shallow, box-shaped area capped by an overhang) OR start by scrambling up to the far left side of "M" shaped ledge and follow a crack that leads to a stance on the far left side of the alcove. Move up and left to follow a streak of black rock.
Follow the black streak and pull through the 5.10 wall's second-tier roof at a well-defined vertical crack. Climb to a tan-colored horn in the crack. It's possible to climb straight up from here with reasonable protection and a few cruxy moves -- or traverse left on good holds to a vertical crack, go up a few feet, and the move back right to align with the crack below and then continue climbing straight up to the top.
Protection
Single rack to No. 3 Camalot. Offset finger-sized cams helpful.
