Proposed Route:

This is the fifth bolted route from the left on the southwest face of Der Zerkle — the long hueco'ed wall facing the Mallory Cave. In 2012, the former first bolt, chopped at some point in the late 1980s, was reinstalled. It's useful to stick-clip this bolt to protect the opening boulder-problem crux.
