Description 

Start atop a big block and climb a finger crack followed by crimping and edging on the thin face left of the arete on small edges to a 2bolt anchor. Kind of crimpy, not as steep as many at Diablo, and fun, high quality climbing. For those that enjoy a delicate face.


Location 

Just left of Two Wheel Drive
It's climb #8 in this online guide photo


Protection 

9 bolts to a 2-bolt anchor.

This route was established in March 2000 by a host of characters on a beautiful spring day at Diablo, including Josh Smith, Mick Schein, Walt Wehner, Leslie Kelch, and Rick Bradshaw. This gets early morning sun and has a bit of everything making it a great warmup for the Early Wall.
