Description:
Start just to the right of Geryon standing by the left side of the boulder down bottom. Go strait up just to the right of the corner. Do some funky balancing moves down bottom then it’s a strait shot to the top using a nice vertical crack in the middle. Beware of loose slabs down bottom; they can easily be kicked off. (Note a slab down bottom has recently been kicked off, it is a little trickier getting yourself lined up now for the balancy move down bottom)

An exciting TR, but dangerous lead. crux move is within 3 moves of the start, and isn't protectable with anything good. A lead fall means striking the table boulder, at least.
