Description 

Located on the southwest face of Little Rock Candy Mountain, this is the route to the right of Sugar Daddy. An easy start leads to a very thin corner. Good feet at the base of the corner fade, requiring multiple moves of stemming. Follow the corner up to the roof. Undercling and reach for the 5' roof move. 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.

Protection 

Small nuts, multiple purple/blue tcu's. Smattering of hand size for upper crack/belay.
