Description 

Step across the small stream and follow bolts up the low-angle grove. Not hard at all if you trust your feet. The guidebook calls it 5.9 but the 5.8 leader should be able to fake his or her way up. A great route to take a new climber on, and teach them to trust their feet. Cool spot.

Location 

At the far right side of the lost world. Right below a cool waterfall (flowing in the spring).

Protection 

Lots and lots of bolts; nine of 'em plus the chain anchor.
