I had a 2004 or 2005 version of the Dixie Cragger's Atlas when I was at Stephen King this weekend at Clear Creek, and I could not figure out the name of one route on the left side of SKL that I was working on.

I know that "Skeleton Crew" (5.11d) works the crack on the far left side of the library, then comes up and traverses right to an anchor beneath the roof. What route (and grade) is it if you follow the bolted line through the crack and then, instead, come out left over a block and up the left-facing face outside the cave? It becomes like a 5.10 for a few moves, then there is a difficult and painful finish crux with a jug on the right to a razor-sharp pocket on the left to good holds above that. There is a two-bolt anchor with one oval 'biner and one larger quicklink.

Any help in identifying this route would be great, thanks.
