Description 

Located on the Tunnel Bluff, start up toward the obvious roof above a big ledge (Bionic Finger Crack is to the left). Straight forward climbing to the ledge with tons of protection (small to medium cams and nuts). The Crux is at the roof and requires a layback on some slick rock. Commiting move but easy to protect with a #2 Camalot and a long sling. After pulling the overhang gain the crack and enjoy the easy jamming to the top.
Fun little climb with lots of protection for beginning leaders.

The hardest looking overhang that is easy to pull. Great for photo opps.

I think this is the best climb at Ely's Peak, regardless of the 5.6 rating.
