Description

A less traveled attention getting route. "Loose" rock and scary flake add/subtract to the appeal. Great route imo. At the first ledge, I would start with the finger crack on Gambit and then transition left to get on Sintisa. Make a few dicey slab moves on micro gear. Then climb a steep section pulling hard on a ringlock at the crux. I did not touch the flake and I recommend avoiding it. Watch out for the cactus near the top.

Location

There is a trampled area for the start of Gambit. I would start/belay just down and to the left of this area. Blocky start to the ledge but keeps the line straight and the belayer has a good view. Gear anchor at the top.

Protection

Bring your standard rack. Include micros. A yellow Camalot is the largest piece I used.
