Description Right-facing OW flake that lends itself to laybacking. Nice face features keep it mellow.
Location Immediately left of where the new trail meets the cliff.
Protection 5"-6". New #5 camalots were pretty tipped out, the old 5's might be perfect.

| this is not yer style Alex? short an dumpy 5.9 for you but a 9 leader will get crushed .... may sound harsh but you should consider what 30 ft of 5.9 should feel like... no disrespect.. |

| No worries Devin. Dan got the FA on this baby and I agreed with him that the climbing was not hard enough to warrant 5.10. I actually enjoyed this route but it is a little spooky because of the thin edge you have to pull on but there are good feet the whole way, just feels sporty. |
