Description:
Climbs the beautiful golden slab below Wings and Stings. The bolts are well spaced for a rap bolted route. Very sustained climbing on polished grinite and dime edges. No real good rests. Though rap bolted and all bolts, I wouldn't reccomend it to a "sport" climber.Descent Options:
Rap the route.

More heads up climbing.
Thin dime edges on polished granite. Did it just after Set the Controls. The bolts are a bit closer and the edges are a bit more positive. A good test route before jumping on Set the Controls. Still a bit heady I thought. Maybe I,m just a pussy.
