North Face of Firepit Rock


Description 

A beautiful 20+ foot line up the obvious overhanging face of the large boulder next to the pay station. The route starts on a left hand undercling, right hand on any of the left-facing pinches. Lunge right hand to the top pinch crimp, set you feet and pop left hand to the obvious shark tooth edge, right hand to the gaston and then up to the chickenhead horn and then a simple toss to the seam over the lip...short easy slab to follow. V8 from a cheat stone(original version), V9 from the obvious left hand undercling.
