Mark Hawthorne leading through the overhanging fin...
Description
Located about 25 feet left of Brown Derby this route begins on face climbing up then right to the base of a nice corner hand crack. Climb this hand crack to the top of a pillar. From this point straight up is Kingfolia (5.10+). Climb up and right out a flake on great holds then exit on a thin hands crack.

Good point Greg. A #3 Camalot fits perfectly into the flake about halfway across. Additionally, it is fairly steep climbing across the flake, so place good gear and climb quickly when possible.

The stress factor is only there cause of that pillar. Still, the climbing eases way up once you get vertical again.
