Two local climbers put up a new line that's squeezed inbetween Hanging Humor and the anchors for Rock Ninja. The route still needs to be cleaned properly. By word of mouth they're rating it .12d and named it A Little Ninja. The route starts to the right of Hanging Humor and pretty much overlaps it at the 5 and 6 bolt. It takes a hard right traverse at the end to the cold shuts. The first ascent is still up for grabs as of 7/7/04. If anyone sends it lets hear the rating suggestion.

well from what i have heard from you and blake, i would probably say the route isn't worth it.
I guess it is called 12d, but it needs cleaned badly and the route difficulty may change.
now the real question is it fun? interesting?
:? ???

Sounds contrived to me, any route that you have to SQUEEZE in shouldn't be bolted. Thats just my opnion.

Well it's been a couple of years since this route went in and I still haven't had the urge to climb it...it just looks shitty. And from what I gather from the few people that have done it is way easier than .12d and not worth doing. Maybe the bolts should be chopped? I don't know. No one ever gets on it anyway.
