Description:
Starts right of Pump Street, on the right end of the Amphitheater's central wall. A very intense climb all the way, many problem areas, even the traverses are demanding. Very gratifying.

worth a go but take care
Nice to finally get a chance at this as the amphitheater was dry for once. Usually this route is a waterfall! Fun moves on good holds if you look around a bit. Definitely runout in places though, as you wouldn't want to screw up your clips! One more bolt probably would have made it reasonable... plus the usual standard Pilot crazy high first bolt, but at least you can clip off of a jug. Interesting to note that as this doesn't get climbed nearly as often as it's neighbors the holds actually still have some good friction left which definitely helps.
Not exactly an onsight but I forget the proper terminology since I a) watched someone put it up and b) they left the draws. I then re-lead it.

Where's the alzheimer's onsight ascent style?
I thought this was 5.8 when I left the ground. Also thought the bolts were closer together than they are. And pretty much figured that there was one more bolt. Very fun revisiting this route.

Run-out...
Definitely run-out, but the moves are fairly straightforward. If you are strong at the grade, it should be a really fun route.
