Description This fun pitch starts about 30 ft right of Walden's room in beautiful L facing corner. Long reach get's you to first pocket in dihedral. Lieback up dihedral until you can reach the jams. Enter squeeze chimney (fun grunting) and ascend until it is possible to exit right under roof. A few more lieback moves takes you to good anchor visible from ground.
Protection We TR'd this pitch after finishing walden's room. Look's like it would be difficult to pro at the start (bring small-med. nuts).

| Hey Andrew, How are you? Yea I did this one. We have put up about 30 or so pitches in the canyon. Its turing out to be a great area and it still has loads of potential. I will be out there next weekend working a project, if you are in the area we should try and hook up. |

| Nice line - would be a tough lead - very bouldery and hard to protect start. Convenient top rope after Walden's Room. |
