Description 

Start almost in the far left corner of Cave Buttress to where it becomes a dike. Begin up the white band of rock clipping a few bolts. Gain a ledge and protect with gear. Continue up the face with a few more bolts gaining a crack system that leads to a roof. Place gear in the crack and traverse the roof left and clip a bolt on the roof's lip. Surmount the roof and put in some small gear and tip toe to the anchors.


Location 

First Route on Cave Buttress. Start almost in the far left corner of Cave Buttress to where it becomes a dike. Rap from anchors.


Protection 

5-7 QDs and small gear (green C3 to 0.4 Camalot).
