Description 

This climb is about 10' right of "#22"; it is the rightmost line on the South Side of the Big Enchilada that looks worth considering.

Climb up a blocky dihedral to a ledge covered with rubble and loose rocks. Climb the headwall above, following the crack in its center that begins as hands, passes over a block, then turns to a finger crack. Finish on easy slab to an anchor on the blocks at the top.

Location 

Route #23 in Chen/Wehner, as shown on the South Side beta photo.

This climb is also listed as Beverly #25 (5.9+) and Jackson #8 (5.9+).

Protection 

Standard rack up to 2.5 inches.
2-bolt anchor, reachable from the top, was installed to prevent further damage to trees.
