Description:

The namesake. Starts on obvious groundlevel left-facing dihedralesque feature (just to the right of where the main trail intersects this section of the cliff). Cool warm up route, beware, if you are a 5.10 sport climber you are likely to find the last bolt to the shuts runout. N38°14.423 W080°50.379

5 out of 5 stars Classic...

First clip was high and had a few awkward moves getting to it - used a random stick that was beside the route along with some finger tape to stick clip it...crux was VERY reachy. After I took some good whips on the traverse I finally was able to clip that bolt (if your short head left and up rather than right if you want any chance...). VERY runout towards the top, but the holds are jugs so its pretty easy to keep pushing through.
