It's been around for a few years now. Can't remember who put it up but it's 10d or so?

The mysterious bolted line right of Garfield is scruffy (go figure) now and quite hard even for 10d. It also requires gear in a dirty crack to get to the top of the wall (bolt station). I have also seen recently an interesting, long haired guy frequenting Comic Rocks with a chainsaw 'working' on cleaning up the area. This guy is convinced that said bolted line is Broom Hilda, and is quick with beta for the '5.8' moves! My understanding is Broom Hilda is farther right in the munge beside the burnt snag and has no pro. Too bad, if it were bolted it would actually be a fun line as the rock over there is really unique, almost volcanic, very grippy, and lots of cool pockets. But the mystery route remains, well, a mystery. Anyone?
