Description 

Steep finger and hands corner through clean rock offering great pro. Can also be TR'd (with plenty of swing potential.)

Some of the jams have nice sharp features, taping is recommended unless you're a universal donor.

After you round the corner, its easy, juggy climbing to the top.

It would warrant more stars were it longer (and if I didn't get bit like mad by the mean-spirited ants at the bottom.)


Location 

From the top of the crag, this climb is directly below the rightmost hangers. Rap down onto a comfy (and scenic) ledge for access to the route.


Protection 

Pro from 1" to about 2.5"

I visited this rarely visited crag with high hopes and tons of enthusiasm, but the latter and the former were running in short supply after the scrubby approach, the biting ants, and the bee nest. It felt like a truly an adventurous day in the Santa Barbara backcountry, even though the road was within view. The climb looks amazing, though. Short, but amazing.
