Description:
Two pitch slab climb that is made more difficult by the bolt placement. Watch runout created if you don't have your climb perfectly planned. Other than that, fun route!

Fun climb!
Not exactly slab, not exactly crack.. second pitch makes things interesting!
Lead with a 60m to the top of the second pitch and rapped off the anchors there to the belay ledge (first pitch anchors). At the belay ledge, you can either get lowered, or rap down again.

Interesting second pitch
The bolts on first pitch off the route a bit. Went a bit too left and skiped last bolt. A bit a runout if you do this. Second pitch kicked my ass, easy chimney move helps a lot instead whatever I was trying. Can link two pitches on one lead, lower to first pitch anhors and rapp off them.

Ascent Note
The bolting is off the "natural line" of the seam, and as such it was easy to get off route to the left when the route goes up using a tiny pocket. I had to take a hang to figure it out. The second pitch (which I linked) was a fun stemming dihedral with an interesting bulge. This is refered to as Quail Trail and rated at 10c in the new book.
