Description
Beautiful line. This awesome route climbs over a very powerful and sequential V6-ish roof to some slopey-pinches on the arete. Then continue up the left side of the arete for much easier and interesting climbing, probably in the 5.11a range. Suggestion: Clip the first bolt by hand from the top of the boulder and stick-clip the second. Clipping the second bolt will likely be too difficult for someone who is challenged at this grade; and the fall from pulling over the bulge and not clipping the 2nd bolt is a grounder onto the boulder below. In the Goss guidebook, this is rated 5.11d. Not even close.
Location
Go down the ladder and this is to the left, or if looking at the cliff, or at the ladders, this route is down to the right, just around the corner.
Protection
6 bolts and 2-bolts anchor.
