Description 

This featureless low-angle slab is great for working those feet! Delicate smears and good balance will get you up.


Location 

The route starts on a large ledge above Boogaloo direct. Follow the obvious line of bolts between the two right-facing dihedrals.


Protection 

Well bolted with rap rings on top

Looking at the face as a whole, this face route climbs between the two major lieback cracks on the upper section of Big Rock. This route is the best of the three starting at the ledge at the terminus of Boogaloo Direct. Lots 'o feet as described.

Balance is definately the key. This climb redefines the term "hold." Fun, fun, my second favorite at BR. Definately try this one!

Doug Tilleskjor and I did the FA of this route in 1969 or 1970. Fun climb.
