The second pitch of a visionary route established by Kester Brown in 2001. The first pitch (21) is horribly over-grown. Rap in to the ledge level with the third bolt on Re-Ignition (from the Re-Ignition rap anchor). Climb the overhanging recess feature to an exciting crux move below the lip. Scramble up and left to a ring bolt above the old top anchor to escape.
