Description 

The best route on the cliff in my opinion.

Start to the right and around the corner from Combination Corner and Spinach, on the face left of Minute Maid crack. Climb the featured dark varnished face past a series of horizontal breaks, which provide adequate protection possibilities.


Protection 

A light rack of nuts and TCUs. Rap from 2-bolt anchor or scramble up and right to rap from tree atop Minute Maid.

Nice solid varnished rock, great benches for belayer, very enjoyable. Upgraded to 5.9 in Handren's guide. Friends from PA thought that a soft rating.

I thought that the 5.6 rating in the Brock and McMillen guide was way soft. Great route though.
