Description 

Climb the large crack to the left (watch for snakes!) and traverse under the overhang about 3 feet, or...run out the face direct to the overhang. Keep as far left as you can on the overhang for full value. Mantle up and climb the face (5.10a), keeping left of the giant ledge and overhang feature (Ledger's Bulge).

Lots of ways to finish. Continue up to the ledge and veer to the right and up either the short hand/fist crack (bushy top out, long webbing for tree branch belay), or climb left and finish on the Dangleberry Crack, or... climb way to the right and follow the Stairway to the knob/gear belay.

Location 

From the Middle Fork trail, walk along the base for about 30-40 meters. Locate a sizable ledge with a small cavity and overhang, located about 10 feet above a tree. Start about 15 feet to the left of the tree, about 10 feet further left than the start of Juicifer.

Protection 

Lead: Set of cams, set of nuts, slings. Bad fall potential both before and after the overhang.

Top Rope: Lots and lots of webbing for the trees at the top.
