Erica Bigio cruising the crux. On a warm day this...
Description
One of the best gear climbs in the grade. Good pro all the way to the anchors. Looks harder than it is.
Location
Right side of the wall. It is an obvious right facing dihedral in an alcove that starts 20 feet above the trail at the base of the cliff. It looks harder than it is.
Protection
Standard rack with small cams up to 3 Camalot and two each of purple green and red. Chains at the top for lowering when done.
This route had a stream of water running down it when I arrived. Just a heads up. If it has snowed/rained recently, the route may be wet.

Nice to be able and spice up the day placing a bit of pro. Added bonus is the no hands rest and bolted anchors found up top. The route can easily be protected with 2" and less. Plenty of placements to choose from.
