Description
This is a fun route that keeps your attention most of the way. Climb some chunky rock past a tree to a ledge. Make a move to get to the slot, get some good gear, and then make crux moves to get into and out of the slot. Good holds and gear appear just when you need them. The gear is generally good but not abundant. It's probably not a great pitch to lead if you're pushing your limits, but your mileage will vary.
(The route name and first ascent information was obtained from Steve Levin's excellent guide to the canyon.)
Location
The route is located about ten feet to the left of

.
Protection
A standard Eldo rack. I placed gear from a purple TCU to a #1 Camalot and some small stoppers. Despite appearances, large gear is not needed as the back of the slot has spots for small, but good, gear.
There's a two-bolt rappel anchor at the top that's shared with
Android Tilt
