Description 

This climb starts a bit to the right of East Buttress Gully, near the very lowest point of the rock. It's a thin face climb, with a bolt at the crux move. Walk off to the right from the ledge at the end of the route. This climb is in the sun until mid-afternoon.


Protection 

two bolts plus a few nut placements, plus some gear (or long slings) for the anchor

This wall is often top-roped.

There's a 5.11- variation start beginning on the left - one bolt to the main route.
