Description:
Hard moves off the deck (crux) lead to an highly-featured white face protected by three bolts. After the face, pull the bulge on perfect finger locks to another bolt, then follow the path of least resistance to an anchor. Most climb it as a sport route, but leaders just cracking into 5.9 might want a light rack. Every other stopper and a #3 Camalot ought to do.

nice line
seems to have a 4th bolt now, so no real need for a rack.

Good route on good rock
Nice route. Nothing to tough here, just a long run out if you don't have any gear, but it's loaded with jugs.
