Description 

P1 - Start up a large right-facing flake and climb to below a roof. Move up and right past the roof to gain another crack. Follow this to a chimney which leads to a ledge on the left and a bolted anchor.

P2 - Climb up broken rock to the top of a boulder/flake, step across to the crack and take it to another bolted anchor at the top.

Descent - Two rappels will get you back on the ground. Watch the rope pull after the first rappel, there is some loose stuff that could come down.


Location 

Route starts at a large right-facing flake, or, to the left in a corner with a crack.


Protection 

Camalots #0.4 - #3, set of stoppers.

The beginning was edgy, and spicy without any good gear. I was a little gripped. But I could have been off route.

Jay the start follows a large flake. You probably did the opening moves to Punta Magna and then went left to Apple Cider. The actual route is not PG-13.

This climb has the classic east a awkward section in the form of a flared chimney to a mantel.
