Description

When approaching this area, a large (really large) boudler with a "v" in it is visible from the approach. Secrets of the Beehive is located near this boulder, and directly opposite from "Queen Sweet Nectar". Start in a large hueco and move up and left using the gorgeous patina. Head up to the large ledge and shake out / chalk up. I'll spare you the beta, but you've got 2 holds at the top -- a bad, slopey right pinch and a high left gaston cobble. Don't fall.

Bumping this up to a v6.  Apparently, some holds have broken down low (so I hear from Jonathan Markham).  This grade was suggested by BetaBase, and I think it's fair.  I hopped on the bottom section back in January and it was no v5.
