Description:
Start on the large block to the left of Ubermench. Lean on to the rock with you feet on the block, that is 4 feet from the wall. Powerful moves to get the body on the rock, then its a pumpy ladder to the top. Very exciting.

Onsight ascent by:
stick clip the first bolt
The first moves are super exposed until you get to the second bolt. After that, it's a jug fest. I would not try it w/o first bolt stick clipped.

Spooky Cool Start
I jumped up and clipped to really old bolt from the ground, made the cross over a bit less scary. After the first modern bolt, the routes really fun

Awesome
Fist move still gets the adrenaline pumping after having done the route several times. Good route to warm up on simply because your heart immediately starts pounding. This climb is very psychological.

Ascent note
If not tall enough, have someone lean over and clip first bolt. Nice but tough sequence to start, went well for me using sidepull with right hand. Someone did it direct from below, I think he said that was 12 a or b.
