Description Just left of Mogli Grape (5.6), follow bolts up a low-angle start past a tree to gain a steep cracked face higher up. A stiff (in my humble opinion) crux uses cracks and crimps to gain the anchor.
Worth doing but not classic by any means.
Location As you walk in to the gully in front of you on the right side of the gully's chimney feature you will see a line of bolts roughly following a sharp arete. Thats thee one.
Protection 5 bolts to anchor.

| Has anyone done just the cracks to the right of this? the cracks shape a sort of diamond? looks fairly easy... |

| Was on this route today... both anchors are a bit loose the right one is sketchy in my opinion... |

| Might be a harder fix than that.... im not too worried about a nut that needs tightening. the right hand bolt is a little loose in the rock... th eleft seemed ok but might use a tightening |

| This route is weird. If you follow the bolt line directly up the arete it is much harder than 5.8 and there is a sharp rock awaiting your butt if you whip of the crux. To keep it at 5.8 use the obvious flake to your right for a couple moves then surmount the bulge on decent holds. Not a memorable route. |
