Good route that doesn't see much action
Set a top rope on this after climbing Nuclear Blue. Sussed out the pro and it looks really solid. A painful hand jamming section awaits those who get out of sequence.
Edit: And then I led it (8/9/08), the pro is good until about 15 feet from the top but the climbing eases up quite a bit. Watch out for snakes on the approach trail.
