Description:
This variation is an eliminate, useful if you're putting up 8 Flake for the 1,000th time. Keep hands strictly right of and below the major flake/crack jughaul system of "8 Flake." To make the clips, you'll be using holds inches away from it. The lower of two ledges below and right of bolt #3 is "on route", whereas the upper isn't. The route thins out after bolt #5 but it goes, all the way to the anchors, without using the crack. See "Some Flake" for an easier version.

Red Point ascent by:
tricky; finally got it
The crux move wasn't easy to solve. Beta spoiler. Big reach to a hidden pocket; and while hidden, it's below and right of bad sucker pocket. The footwork was tricky. Right foot went way high, just under a good right-hand sidepull crimp. The right hand then goes to a crescent sidepull/pinch, rock on a littel to reach the hidden pocket. Snatch the good stuff above it.
