description

Best easy route at GFC by a country mile. Looks like a sandbaggy 22 but it isn't. Climbs up and left on the lower orange section. It then makes it way up and right on the grey streaks up to the horn near the top. Wanders a lot and uses many holds out right. If it's over 18, go right. Named after the classic desert boots of the mid 80’s in the local area. The first chopped bolt that gets mentioned in the comments has been replaced by unknown bolting fairies as per 28/01/19.
