Description:
left of the human rope test in the corner under the roof is were the climb begins, the first two bolts are easy getting into the under cling and pulling the move after the third clip is possibly the crux. super fun safe fall on lead and top rope. this climb also makes a good first pitch for climbing all the way into the camp 4 overhangs or to the top.

Top Rope ascent by:
smashing fall
Fun climb fell 3 times and still havnt made it to the top. It would be nice to put a bolt right on the lip of the hang and under the hang. Other then that its a classic route thats worth climbing.

Onsight ascent by:
2nd Pitch
Scott Girggs and I added the two bolts for the overhang and one toward the anchor in 2002. From the anchor you go all the way up the head wall (2nd ptich). The route is called King of Kandahar and is 12c/d? Bolts probably need to be replaced.

Ascent Note
Actually, this route was climb all on gear. I am glad to see someone added bolts. There should have been belay bolts already.
