Any beta or anyone here climbed this route? Has it come clean or does part of that seam require heads? Considering it as an option this weekend...

Thanks!

as long as you're in the vicinity, and if you've the inclination and extra steam, would appreciate a recent perspective on this:

Mike....thanks for the insight and beta! My ankle may have other plans this weekend (injured it on Lunar Ecstacy 3 weeks ago). I'm thinking that a potential deck on the ramp won't be a selling point for Mr. Ankle. Perhaps Right X would be the better candidate. Sound the alarm for Vag Alert. LOL!

thanks, rf. sure was baffling territory. i thought i was cruising it too. from the discussion, it doesn't seem to be a favorite, even among the face aces.

Powell named this route after a dog he bet on in Rapid City on a hunch. Dog came in last - thus the name.
