Description 

Another short, fun one that you might as well do since you have the rappel rigged! Traverse right above the water and climb the left-facing corner. The crux is a tricky hand jam half-way up.


Protection 

Thin to mid-sized cams.

This is a really fun climb, and as Larry says, you might as well do it since the rope is rigged. As I recall, it's the easiest climb out of the Silver Pond and is a decent warm up.

Hey Larry, isn't this one that's possible to do by coming in from the down climb ?
