Description:

The second most obvious route on the wall, somewhat uphill from Under the Boardwalk. This route starts in a right facing dihedral, then moves left as you progress higher. Obvious tickmarks up high reveal the route, but not the crux! Good luck onsighting this one!

5 out of 5 stars awesome route!

first, the "bad bolt" is definitely taken care of. second, those 'tick marks' up top on the holds show you were teh holds are, but definitely decide fo yourself which ones you will use, i don't think i used half of them! anyhow, this route is one of the coolest sport routes i have done out here. totally freaking awesome crux move! (which, after you figure it out, actually isn't too bad!) really, REALLY fun!!

4 out of 5 stars Crux Bolt

I went out to replace the reported bad bolt today, but all it needed was tightened down. Most likely it loosened up from all the whippers on this crux bolt.

4 out of 5 stars cool

Bad bolt so I TRed, my method on the crux is powerful, the other way looks better should try that.
