Description
I did not bolt this route, and am just providing beta after climbing it. Happy to change the name/description if/when whoever bolted it comes forward. This line follows three black glue-ins through a weakness ten feet to the right of fungus folks. The climbing is fun, delicate, slabby, and a great way to get to the climbs above. Linking this into no laughing matter was a quick and enjoyable way to get to the superb climbing on alternative facts - continue on to shifting narratives or super s for an even bigger day! I supplemented the glue-ins with a tiny nut (bd #3) between bolts 2 and 3, and a .75 in a pod above the third bolt. The route would be spicy without gear to supplement the bolts.
