Description:

2 pitches. The first pitch follows some bolts from Nice Jugs but then diverges to the left to a 2 bolt anchor. Afterwards, a 5.10 corner crack system ranging from hands to easy offwidth leads up past some more bolts to another bolted anchor. No need to bring any pro; its well (over) bolted. 2 raps to descend.

4 out of 5 stars Jaws of Life

Pretty fun route, but it would be nice if it wasn't so over-bolted. It would protect well with gear too.
