Quite possibly the easiest 12a in an area chock-full of easy 12a's. Stickclip the first bolt and pull small pockets and crimps to an easy finish. A stack of cheater blocks should be in place to help reach the starting holds-please refrain from knocking these over.

I genuinely don't understand in what world this climb gets 5.12a. I know the Ranch can be soft but even other 5.11s at the Ranch feel harder than this! Love Slave 5.11c has a harder intro boulder to harder exit moves! Maybe I'm missing something but no way this is a 5.12a IMO

Beautiful first 3 clips then a jug slab haul after that. Solid v5 climbing up to the slab so a really great micro route in my eyes.
