Description:
This is a fun low angle route on the south side that can get you away from the South Face crowds, at least after you pass them at the Kor roof. Easy to tick off in a day, with pretty easy aid and quick free climbing up to Dinner... Also, my buddy James replaced several of the anchors that were questionable, and the rivet pitch is more or less pretty bomber now...

Went pretty smooth
-although the 5.9 free move seemed to be getting over to the anchors that are at the start of the last finger-size crack from the right facing corner, not going off those anchors into the left facing corner to the finger-crack as supertopo stated -that was 5.easy
