Description 

Start below a vertical crack above the ledge on the far north part of the main “level” of this area. Good quality rock and solid gear lead through this crack to a couple ledges with broken rock and easy climbing. From the base of the upper face, ascend the middle of the face using small cams and tricky footwork through hollow sounding (hence we placed no bolts), but good looking rock. Belay from top and rap the route, or scramble to the north to access "Heaven" and the anchors of "Stairway to Heaven" and "In Alignment."

Location 

Farthest north on the main ledge of the area, up a "level" from the base of "Stairway to Heaven" and "In Alignment."

Protection 

Trad gear single rack.
