Portions of the approach and cliffs of this area are on private land. MORE INFO >>> Please drive, camp, and climb in a low-impact manner to prevent losing access.

Keeping climbing areas open and conserving the climbing environment

Description 

Fun moves through crazy features lead to a cruxy dihedral just before a 6 foot roof. After the roof, one more big crank is rewarded with easier climbing and nice exposure.

Location 

10 feet right of Spicy Crispy.

Protection 

6 bolts (all orange hangers) to metolius rap hangers. SPECIAL PRECAUTION: when cleaning the route, do not swing out from below the third bolt or you may have a close encounter with a large cactus! The first bolt can be cleaned from the ledge. (edit) It would appear that lightning has removed the large saguaro so this is not an issue any more.
