Description:
About 50' to the right of "Fortis" around the Ascent Gully. The route begins directly beneath a short roof slightly to the right of a big tree. Climb the easy part up to the roof, pull over, and shake out if necessary on the huge ledge; the next section is very pumpy. If you fall, you swing- so be careful. Originally named and climbed by Mike Artz.

Not quite a 5.11
Fun roof pull. Rest of the climb is pumpy, with nice horizontals. Crux is a shallow two finger dish hold for your left hand to pull you up to a deep horizontal. Remaining 10 feet or so have great jug holds but is overhung and will tire you out quicker than you'd think.

Original Ascent
I originally toproped this in 1981. Thought it was 5.9 at the time. Definitely not 5.11. Don't know where that came from.
