This route was envisaged by Craig Miller, who spent days cleaning and bolting only to run out of time before returning to Canada. Naturally, Bryce stepped in to complete the route, climbing the technical and contrived moves onsight. You can tell he was proud of this one: he gave it a star. Or maybe it was just because of the epic I had trying to second him. 9 naked bolts and a DBC belay. Hint: Climb up the small buttress to the left of the belay, stepping DOWN to the belay, as there are no holds to enable you to climb direct.
