Description:
Starts up a slab just to the right of Knapsack. Clip the bolt then follow the crack to the ledge and up between two bushes to the fixed pins.... belay here. (Pitch two) Move up and ever so slightly left following cracks and hidden gear placements to a bolt that protects a short traverse into some cracks. Move up under a small roof (look for the pin) then climb strait up thin cracks and dikes to another bolt. Follow the thin cracks up past a few more small bulges to another bolt then move up and left to easier climbing up a flake and make a gear anchor where you can. A short easy pitch leads to the top.Descent Options:
Walk it off.

Ground up
All bolts placed on lead ground up.
Just looking for an adventure.
The runnout parts are 5.6 or easier.
Kinda hard to follow as there are lots of ways to go,
so I drew a topo.
