Description:
Go to the south side of Holiday Block, and head to the far left end. Just to the right of the arete is the start. The route gets steeper as you go, so conserve energy when you can.

Good holds, good bolt placement
All the holds are pretty steller and all 8 bolts are in good places. Must do.

Not really a 5.10
Easy climbing until the one crux move near the end. Still a very nice climb.

Retro bolted
I've done this on gear (thinnish placements at top) and using the bolt-o-rama that has been created for this route. Only way this is 10a is if you go directly up and pull the overhang at the top...which is more of a pump crux after the bolt sprint below. The moves are fun though...it is a fun route. Lots of people fall off the top move because the bottom is so much easier.
