Description 

An exciting route.

Start at the same place as Bird Cage, at a huge left-facing corner.

P1: Climb 15' up the corner and traverse left past a pin. Although not the hardest part of the pitch, this is definitely challenging to lead. After traversing about 15', climb corners up to an overhang. Pass this on the left to a ledge and a rap anchor. This anchor is often used to TR the hard routes to the left. 5.8, 90'.

Although short, there is a lot of climbing on this pitch. The protection is good.
