Description 

A long route that goes free at only 5.12a. Definitely an adventure climb. Find some beta in an old AAJ magazine or ???. This isn't the type of route you would have a Supertopo for. Our route description listed a tiny bit of info for maybe 1/3 of the pitches; for the rest you just find out as you go. After all, it ain't sport climbing.


Location 

The route starts on a wooded shoulder about 1000' up on the northwest side. Bring a machete for the long trek to the base. If you look hard you can see a couple of bolts from the base.


Protection 

Bring a full rack. The crux is bolted.
