Description:
When you make the upper slab all you can see are the anchors, but don't worry there is another bolt there. UPDATE MAY 2006: The second bolt is spinning and loose in the rock, and you really need this bolt to get into the the gully. I might skip this route till the bolt is secured.

Route kind of curves it's way up the rock but nothing too interesting about the moves. Feels a little harder than 5.7 though.

Fun - a bit run out
Fun route - a bit run out. High first bolt, well bolted for crux past second, a bit thin and run out for third bolt. Nice climb - but not for a beginning leader.
