Description:

Start with a delicate mantel onto a ledge approx. 8 ft. left of Dynabolt Gold. Follow the rib to a series of surprisingly good jugs and two-finger pockets. Pull through the tricky roof and jug up the left water groove. Finish on a wide crack to clip the anchors.

Anchor

4 out of 5 stars Thoughtful and committing

A great thoughtful route. Not 5.10d or 5.10c - definitely 5.10a. It does require a lot of thought and is not a jug haul.
