MapDescription
This route shares the same start as Bloodsport, but goes left instead of right at the roof. Let me be the first to say that the crux is ridiculous, but very short and fun! It is right as you start going left from the roof. The granite guide says this is a 5.9 route, but I'm giving it a solid 5.10. There is definitely a correct way to climb through the crux that will help you out tremendously. Belay at anchors for Bloodline. Be careful of rope drag.
Location
The route starts just to the right of Bloodline. Same start as Bloodsport.
Protection
Camelot C4 0.4 - 3. You don't need a #4. Bring lot's of runners to eliminate rope drag.
