This route has access issues. Please read the note available on the Wichita Wildlife Refuge page.

Description 

No gear for the first 30 feet till you hit the upper crack. The crux is the first couple of move just off the deck. A good TR for the area.


Location 

Face just right of Yee Haw. Hike off or rap from the trees.


Protection 

Gear to #3, no anchor.

After you pull out of bouldering range on this route it really mellows out. Depending on you comfort level climbing low angles, it goes from 5.6-8 slab up to a crack system. It makes a very straight forward X route...pretty much just as easy to free solo the thing. You could probably pad the base if you are worried about a bad landing on the boulder start. Really nice and challenging moves to start and then a mellow finish to relax and enjoy.
