Description
Starts with a shallow crack not easily protected, on beautiful, smooth rock. Hidden right facing hold on right crucial to keep it at 5.10a. Where the thin crack peters out, somewhat run-out face moves (5.8 PG) lead up to a short, straight-in crack that ends on ledges. Move a few feet to the left, then climb a small left-facing dihedral to the top.
The route can easily be top roped by climbing Blue Bayou (5.4) to the left.
