FA & discussion of the weirdness
Memorable and interesting traversing up high. This route is hard to grade. The crux moves are surrounded by non-easy moves that might suggest 5.11a. But there's a whole lot less pump than Rock-About. The weird low ledge bolt is intended to prevent ropes from crossing/sawing should someone lead Penelope Says So at the same time as you lead this traverse. The weird low clips after the ledge are because Penelope's bolt was already there. I guess they help reduce rope-drag too.
