The Rock Climbing Arizona, Green, guide calls this a 2 pitch climb, but there's no reason to not do it in 1 pitch. Start under the obvious thin Cling of Pain (King Cling) Crack and climb up easy rock and follow a low angle ramp to the base of the corner. Ramp and start (5.5). Climb the thin dihedral up to the top. It has great stemming, a few hand jams, and a nice horizonal in the right wall. The rock in the crack is a bit crumbly, but not scary.
Location
Dihedral about 15 ft left of the Cling of Pain (King Cling) crack. Cliff is slightly behind the main cliff, all the way to the south end.
Protection
Mostly smaller cams(< 1") and nuts. Walk off to the north, or scramble over about 15 ft. and lower off the drop in shuts about Cling of Pain(King Cling) crack.
