Description

Climb the face of the rib, surmount the overhang, and continue to a ledge.

Above the ledge, the guide books say to finish via a neighboring route, but it looks to me like you could follow a new (perhaps contrived) line up between Plethora and Scavenger of Sorrow.

This is a named climb in both the Knower book and Swartling/Mayer although in S/M it shares the same route number with Plethora (#14).

S/M says that to surmount the roof you can step left around the corner without using Plethora crack, then move back up right and over the roof.

Location

Find the right-most rib on the main Horse Rampart wall before the wall becomes more broken up and slabby. This rib is between Plethora on the left and Scavenger of Sorrow on the right.
