Description

The crux is a very well-protected mantel right off the ground.  After that the difficulty eases, but so do the number of bolts.  After the fifth bolt start angling right past the sixth bolt, which might be hard to spot.  Keep heading right to an obvious ledge and a seventh bolt.  Head back left up the ramp to a two-bolt anchor with chains for a double rope rappel back to the start.

This is an excellent approach pitch for Bill's Bad Bolts.

Location

From the very top of Badman's Mezzanine find two closely spaced bolts next to a pine tree.

Protection

Seven protection bolts to a 2-bolt anchor with chains.
