Description:
A slightly sustained traverse leads to a bucket before the crux moves, a really strenuous lieback to some good crimps. Slightly overhung. Overall a good route.

Short and athletic 5.12
This seems to be a popular project climb for folks who are seeking to push thru to 5.12, since there is a good gear rescue route next door (Steep Street). I would consider this a stiff .12a, or .12b.
The route consists of a bouldery start off the ground, then a traverse on mostly really good, positive holds with good ledges for feet, then a few more good holds up to the horizontal crack/jug just below the crux.
The crux involves a really crappy sidepull for the right hand, then a reach for an equally crappy sidepull in the same direction for the left hand, providing a somewhat tenuous stance for the 5th clip. There are really good feet here if you look in the right places. Up from the 5th clip, the gradient softens some with a few mediocre crimpy holds and a recommended left heel hook to the finish.
