Description:

A short, technical line with a steep, bouldery start. no endurance necessary! Seems to be some confusion over the grade, which is reported as 12.a in some places...but then, who gives a ****? 12a direct, 12b from the R side.

short but packed with good moves. moving in from the R didn't feel harder than the direct.

3 out of 5 stars Youth Gone Wild, 12b

12a direct, 12b if you traverse in from the R side. Good, one hard pull at the bottom and then a balance move or two to finish.
