BETA PHOTO: The left end of the cliff.... the big black overha...


Description 

The left side as I will describe it is the left side of the steeper climbing before getting to the slabs....
You will be at the left end when you notice a few choices of cracks heading up to a large ledge.... Also marking the left side is the boulder problem little overhang.... It is a small roof 8 feet off the ground above a corner....

This is a good spot for beginners as there are numerous options that can be climbed off of a single anchor.... Basically I like to do a choose your own adventure approach here picking a crack to start and a few different (mostly steep and juggy) finishes to choose from....


Getting There 

Walk to the left end of the cliff.... If you get to the slabs, you went too far....
