Description

This route is to the right of

The Buzz

(5.12d) in the amphitheatre right of the actual

Bitty Buttress

route. Scramble up to a ledge below a bolt about ten feet above you and belay. Climb up and clip the first bolt and gain a semi-exposed ledge. Clip the second bolt, and lay down and unclip the first bolt to reduce rope drag. The meat of the climb is three boulder problems separated by rests with the rests getting worse after each boulder problem. Probably, the most continuously steep route in the canyon and maybe a stiff 13b at that.

Protection

10 bolts. Reach down and unclip the first bolt after you clip the second to reduce rope drag.
