Description

This is a great slab line with unique movement and a few committing moves to keep you on your toes.  Start on a flake and work up following a wide arching handcrack. Workout the sequence to surmount the crux from bolt two to three before your toes and calves start screaming.  The climbing eases up a bit after the fourth bolt, but is still quite enjoyable. Don't forget to enjoy the view from anchors and top it out for added fun.

Location

As you approach the portal to Purgatory walk past the arch and a few trad lines to locate two route on the less than vertical face.  The right of the two routes is Skunk Love.

Protection

8 bolts plus anchors.  Stick clipping the first bolt is recommended.
