Description 

Climb the concave part of the wall just to the right of the start for The Shield. It’s easy when dry, but if it’s wet, you’ll probably need to climb the short, blunt arête to the right. Climb to a sloping stance just below the arête and continue up to the large ledge above. Climb the face, only this time angle right to the right side of the overhand, and step over to the upper face just left of a small bush. Continue up the intricate face (a little more difficult than on The Shield), past a small overlap, to the anchors on top of The Shield.


Location 

Starts at the same pine tree that marks the start of The Shield on the right (south) side of the wall.


Protection 

Standard rack, shares a two bolt anchor with The Shield.
