Description
This is a relatively short but dicey sport route that has decent hands, but it will sketch out all but the most ballsy. [Find] it about 25 yards to the north of the gigantic roof. [This] can be [top-roped] via two bolts at the top.
Per Mike Carrington: this has a high first bolt to a one finger pocket. Traverse left, then gun for the top.
Eds. Two submissions were combined onto the 1st submission's page.
Location
Per Mike Carrington: this climb is on a short wall in between the Morning Sun Wall and The Cave Wall.
