An updated description.
Alternative Facts 100' 5.11c *
Xavier Wasiak. 2017.
Double rack to 2". Triple 1". Small & medium wires. Optional 3".
This route has five bolts, although it was led without any on the first ascent (after practice) .
This route climbs the big, smooth-walled corner above the anchor shared by No Laughing Matter and Serious Business. With the bolts the route is well-protected, without there is a fairly serious stretch of thin stemming by the second and third bolts, which is un-protected. The route is still a little sandy, but the climbing is excellent.
After an awkward start in a tight corner, a long stretch of thin stemming and face climbing leads past a small roof to better holds. Continue up the big corner to a bulge and make a few tricky moves up the steeply slanting corner to better holds. Finish up and a little left to an anchor above sloping ledge (5 b's).
