Description 

This is a really nice, forty five degree overhanging, forty five degree right-leaning, tight hand crack. Start matched in the lowest tight hands and climb out to the awkward lip encounter. There is also a lower start I put up that goes at about V8 or V9. For this one, start on the tips locks just down from the regular start, crossing into the regular starting jams. This adds a couple of fun and difficult moves. This is definitely one of the prettiest lines around in my opinion.

Location 

On the right side of the main cluster of Coyote Rocks locate the totem pole looking tower of rock. Follow the gully directly to the right of this up and over the saddle in the formation, then down the other side. This is on the big, obvious boulder a little ways down the hill and in the woods, facing uphill.

Protection 

One pad is fine.
