Corner system (yes - an actual corner/crack at RRCOS) in left side of face. Head straight up to first bolt, then work your way into the corner system from left hand side up past third bolt to small ledge. Proceed straight up as slab tapers off to anchors.


Location 

This is the left most climb of three at the Whale's Tail.


Protection 

6 bolts to a 2-bolt anchor.
