Description 

Route starts up huecos left of prow, then up finger crack with chimney finish. Classic Moonstone lead. Karen rock also has many toprope variations and a good traverse along the base.


Location 

Karen rock is the largest formation at Moonstone beach. Karen crack is obvious line left of the prow. Walk off.


Protection 

Medium cams in pockets at start, finger size cams/nuts, run out the short chimney. Bolt anchor, bring long slings for toproping.
