good traverse to a solid boulder problem and a big move. it's a walk after that, though.

this is a lot harder than Aqueduct Pocket, 11c is good

It's easy if you know which pockets to grab, hard to onsight.

This felt more like most of the 11d's that tend to kick my ass. Straight up to the first bolt although short-lived was frikkin powerful feeling for 11c. I see Paul3eb mentions a traverse, perhaps that would have given me a prayer to keep pulling.

anticlimactic after the third bolt. Very fun up to that point though.

Route details are copyright Ray Ellington, John Bronaugh, and other Red River Gorge climbers. Climbing is an inherently dangerous sport. The information in this guidebook is subject to error and should supplement never replace common sense and caution, competent guidance and instruction, and actually being outside. One should be especially cautious on matters of route length, descent type, and number of bolts (especially since such things do change occasionally).
