Spontaneous Combustion

Description

The left arête on the wall. Scramble up on a small ledge to gain the first bolt. Clip number two from a left hand side pull, then start hugging up the arête. There is a crux between bolts four and five, followed by a decent rest. Next surge up some more difficult climbing to the hardest part of the route between bolts six and seven.  From the right hand clip hold at bolt 6, you bump twice with the left to a good sidepull pocket, cross over to a tight right hand 2 finger, and then up to a hueco just past bolt 7.  Milk an okay rest here and fire past one more crux at bolt eight. Tenuous feet, a small right hand crimp, an inobvious left hand side pull, and a wide left hand pinch on the arête leads up to the anchor.  You might want to skip the last bolt because there is no real clipping hold.  It's a pretty long fall, but safe.
