On a recent trip to the leap we were climbing some climbs on the west end of Hogsback. After climbing Better with Bacon, we saw some climbers putting up a new route. The route is about 100 yards west of Better with Bacon, 50 yards west of the 5.4 X pillar, and just to the left (east) of a bolted 5.10 b/c route(unsure of the name). It looks as though it is a bolted route up a fairly predominate pillar.

Does anyone know the name, grade, pitch length, number of pitches, actually anything would be great.

That route is called Ham and Cheese. The first pitch is 100ft and is 5.6. The second pitch is a little longer and is not very good.
The route to the right is prosciuto 5 bolts about 80ft and is pretty fun.
There is another route to the right also, honkey toast 5.11 bolts and gear, super slabby about 140ft.
see you out there

What type of gear for Ham and Cheese? Draws only, or is gear needed?
