Description

Zig your way up and to the left following thin crack systems until you get to a big ledge; then move right and go up a wide obvious crack to finish at a 2 bolt anchor.  Pro crux is before the ledge, and the move crux is getting above the ledge into the crack.

Location

On the right side of Aqueduct wall, carefully head up the talus/scree field to the first set up bushes to find the start of the climb.  Alternatively, it is possible to go all the way to the 2 bolt anchor directly.

Caveat:  this area has not seen much traffic: there is no good trail up and the scree is loose.  Watch out for rock slide.  Route itself could use some more cleaning.

Protection

A set of nuts and small/medium cams protect the entire route. Save a BD #3 to protect the first move into upper crack. The 2 bolt anchor has clip in steel rap carabiners.
