Description 

A long, high-quality route on beautiful stone. It has some friction moves, some crack, some traversing on an intrusion/dyke, just about everything except an overhang.


Location 

The far south end of the wall at Shannon Falls curves around to face more towards the south. Walk along the base of the cliff from the falls area until it curves up and around to a very nice clearing below a smooth face. The route up the cracks in the face is Poultry in Motion, the more rounded buttress on the left is Man of Leisure. The trail isn't heavily used, so it may take some false starts to get there.


Protection 

Mostly bolts but a small selection of finger and hand sized nuts and cams is necessary. Descent by rappel (but note that the route is longer than 100 feet) or by walking around to the east then south.
