Description

I added this previously as a comment. If you are in the area and looking for more moderate lines, there is a line to the right which can go at 5.7 PG-13 or R (depending on the start) with mostly natural gear. The neighboring, lower-end, moderate routes,

, may bring you to the area, this is just another filler route, but it may be fun. FWIW, I think it's 3rd best after

What if You're Not

&

Final Solution

. It's very likely been done previously.

Clip the 1st bolt of

What if You're Not

? and either downclimb and move right or just go up and right. Above the bolt place a #4 Camalot, angle right, traverse a ledge right, put a red Alien in a small pocket and/or #2 Camalot in a hueco. Move up, place a #3 Camalot in a pocket, move up and right, place a bomber #2 Camalot in a crack, pull a bulge and move up to the top. Protect the finish with an orange Alien. We named it "Two Clucks from Saigon." It is left of

Wing Ding

(which is much harder). Kinda feels like Red River Gorge.

Alternative finish: you can bugger off right to the anchors of

Hot if You're Not

instead of pulling the final bulge. We had named that "One Click to Saigon."

Fun hueco pulling.

Addendum

: Friends don't fit these huecos as well. Camalots do better.

Location

This starts on or just left of the start for

What if You're Not

? Then, after clipping the first bolt (if you start this way), you angle right. You can make it complete independent by staying right of the 1st bolt, it's then in the R range.

Protection

Cams, QD, red & orange Aliens; #1, 2 #2, #3, #4 Camalots.
