MapDescription
This is essentially Shotgun but with the variation of pulling the roof further down instead of continuing up into the apex of the roof before pulling out. Although similar to Shotgun, we thought it was fun enough to include it as a separate route.
Just after you exit the splitter 'lighting bolt' crack you will see two cracks in the roof that angle up and to climber's left. Hold your breath and work these two overhanging cracks until you get on the upper face. Easy ascent from there. Committing and FUN!
Protection
As per Shotgun - plus you can clip a piece of history and clip the piton in the higher of the two cracks. Can be protected well with a #2 Camalot - maybe even a #3.
