Well protected, cruxy climbing in the corner.


Description 

This is a nice line that took a little bit of cleaning, and the trundling of a very unstable and rather large block from the bombay corner. Climb the short right facing corner past a bolt to excellent small stopper placements. The corner changes to a short left facing feature here, and leads to a small ledge. From the small ledge, stem wide up the right facing bombay corner, passing 2 bolts to easier ground. Continue up the low angled crack and seam (RP's up high, or climb left and back around) to an anchor at 100'.


Location 

This is the last line on the left end of the wall. It is 100' left of "Hickory Nutcracker". Locate the left side of the huge flake system that creates "Hickory Nutcracker"


Protection 

Standard rack, with some small nuts/RP's.
