Description
Begin with some easy climbing on flakes to gain the steeper white rock. Some low 5.12 (I think?) climbing leads into the obvious crux boulder problem surmounting the steep bulge midway up the route. The boulder problem is reachy, very cool and very hard - probably around V7/8. The name is based on my solution to the boulder problem. Traverse left at the end of the boulder problem, milk the rest then tackle the technical (and sharp!) headwall.
I haven't been able to get back and invest the required time to complete this one so I'm opening it up for everyone. Because it hasn't been climbed on much, the upper half is still very sharp.
After I completed bolting this, I headed back to civilization to find out that the bolting issue had blown up and a bolting ban had taken effect for the BigHorns. Maybe the last legally bolted climb in the BigHorns?
Location
Begins on a 5 foot flake feature just left of the belay platform for Poker Face. Look for the steep white bulge midway up the route. A few hundred feet to the right of Bury the Hatchet.
Protection
Bolts.
