Description 

This is route #20 in the LAM on-line guide.

Start up a crack system, through some blocky stuff, and enter a nice stemming dihedral with stable stances; the chimney running up the back has great hand/fist (or wider) cracks. An excellent beginner trad lead.


Location 

The second dihedral in from the far left (west) end of the south cliff.


Protection 

Great stances on lead, sew it up with medium cams & hexes.
Popularly top-roped by slinging the large juniper at the top with static line or longer slings, but there's abundant opportunities for gear anchors on top as well.
