Description 

1. Boulder up to engage short ramp heading left. At end, wander up and right thru small cracks to bolt at small overhang. Up and right thru another small overhang with bolt to big ledge. (5.7)
2. Diagonal up and right past 3 bolts, then up intermittent cracks to 2-bolt belay/rap station. Hidden slot for small "TCU type" piece protects final moves.


Location 

Climbs face about 50 feet left of Chimney Route on southeast corner.
Start just left of a small cave.
60 M double ropes will JUST reach ground from top. 50 M's will reach ledge with bushes to right of face, then short rap to ground.


Protection 

Mostly small crack pro and a few bolts.
