Description
This route is located on the southwest face of Little Rock Candy Mountain, to the right of Sugar Daddy. The climb ascends a striking dihedral that is capped by a flat ceiling.
An easy start leads up to the obvious dihedral. Good feet at the base of the corner fade, requiring multiple moves of stemming protected by small wires. Follow the corner up to the ceiling and pull past this (crux) to easier terrain. The route then joins Sugar Daddy for easy climbing to the top.
Unless you have very thin fingers, this route requires multiple stemming moves. A good precursor to the more challenging stemming routes like Coarse and Buggy.
