Go left when there are no holds on the 4th or 5th bolt i think it was. Easy to the top from there.

3 out of 5 stars Sunglasses and Sideburns

Crux move or two do not show up until the last two bolts. Nice long and sustained pitch worth doing for sure. Typical Meathooks, real juggy and then a slight overhang-bulge with soft edges.
