Description
Begin either in the corner reaching to the right to clip the bolts or climb straight over them. Either way you will eventually veer away from the corner crack and roll up onto the slab placing you below the steep headwall. Head through the white section and punch it up the red shield using mostly side pulls staying a bit right of the bolts near the top.
There has evolved two separate finishes over the past couple seasons as this route has gained popularity. The left finish, now called Falling Star goes at 5.12c and stays left of the final bolt eliminating a half dozen hard moves. The original ending stays decidedly right of the last bolt and produces a completely different sequence and thus a higher grade. Many still call it 5.13a, you decide.
