Barbaric Control is a 5.12a YDS sport, 50 ft (15 m) located in Montrose > Dry Creek Crag > Left Side. First ascent by unknown. This is on you off the ground no matter what holds you choose. Gain a small rail to the left after bolt 2, then jump into thin crimps on bomb patina to bolt 3. Hold it together through a small bulge, and then traverse right a few feet on good holds to use the anchor for "Jugfest," as the anchor for this climb is no longer here (2 holes, glue ins here would be amazing). This is harder and a bit better than the route just to its left. Protection: This has a West-facing, alcove start, and it is right of the classic Postman by 2 bolted routes and just left of the Jugfest arete.
