Get ready to pull out all the tricks...this route has a little bit of everything. Start by pulling a thuggy bulge, and then balance your way to the second bolt. From here follow a nice dihedral through cryptic sequences, alternating between delicate balance moves and power pulling. Some chossy rock near the 2nd and 3rd bolt - as well as some awkward clips - detract a little from the quality, but overall a fun route and a full value experience. 

 (Originally rated 12a, but that seems like a major sandbag; or maybe I just need to get better calibrated to the grades at the Pecos!)

Arching crack to the right of Cat on a Hot Tin Roof

These climbs are located on a ledge up and right of the first pitch of Coup Stick. This wall gets it's name from a crack system that outlines the shape of a buffalo. The red stains suggest blood and that the buffalo was slain :/ .............
