Right to Left Traverse

Description

This has probably been done before given how obvious it is, but I found it surprisingly more difficult and trickier than I originally thought that it's probably worth adding here. Start on the starting holds for Love, Lindsey and end on the starting holds for Cowboys in Limbeau. All holds beneath the overhanging roof are on with the crux coming towards the beginning about 7 feet into the route on a relatively featureless bulging section. This route will end up linking moves across all of the other routes in this area, so it would help to do those first and then work on the remaining sequences to link everything together. You will never be too far off the ground so it is pretty safe, but there are a couple exceptions. First is that the end has quite a few rocks beneath where you will climbing while at your most tired that will hurt to fall on regardless of the height. The other is that the general "chossyness" of the wall leads to quite a few of the potential holds being a bit loose and prone to ripping off. Just as obvious is another option to traverse from left to right. I will try to come back and do that as well, but I suspect the nature and direction of the holds will make that traverse notably more difficult and will probably be worth it's own post when it is done.

I used one crash pad towards the end but definitely could use more depending on your comfort.
