Description
Sustained face climbing with nice "flow".
Start down in the mini-gully between the tree and the rock wall. Straight up to the top.
warning: The rock on and around this route has not been climbed much yet, and much of the rock is still breakable and loose -- so the belayer and other people should stand far away from underneath the climber - (and if possible, behind a large tree).
. . (Lots of vegetation on this rock as of 2016. Be prepared when climbing to navigate around protruding trees and branches, and dealing with holds slippery with grass, lichen, moss, dirt).
. . (The print guidebook 2011 edition by Jon Crefeld has a boulder problem called "Flavor Savor" somewhere around here, but not sure exactly what it is).
