Description:
This long route pulls over multiple roofs on solid Clear Creek rock between Little Kitten (to the left) and the sweet arete climb Wet Dream (to the right). There can be bits of loose rock on the ledges after the roofs, be careful not to bombard your belayer. I found the first overlap to be slightly difficult to clip, although the final crux roof up high, was very well protected and more fun than words. Excellent from bottom to top, my favorite route on Wall of 90's for the moves, exposure, and length.

Excellent
If this were more sustained or without the rests I probably would of had much more trouble with it. Don't think the guidebook 11c/d is accurate, felt a little easier than that, maybe a hair harder than Cut Loose at Canal Zone which is 11a. Super well protected with lots of rests.

Amazing
A real must do! It would be even better quality if it didn't have such huge rests.
