Description A great pitch that often gets used as a warm up for the 5.13s to the right on the Churning Buttress. It sees a lot of traffic, but with good reason. Typical Smith Rock crimps and pockets abound.
It's a fun route to jump on at the end of the day for one last burn on the way back to the car if nobody's on it.
The start is 15-20ft. to the right of the tree at the base of the Morning Glory wall, just around the corner from the Zebra/5 Gallon Buckets area.
Protection 8 bolts to a bolted anchor, or continue past another 5 bolts to a higher anchor.

| To lower off the second set of anchors you need a 70m rope. |

| Ian Cadwell just ripped off the loose flake right above the first anchors making the climb feel like 11c. |

| Did it to the first anchors and the crux felt pretty slippery and precarious, like I could easily blow off at any time. The locals look like they could do it blindfolded. |

| Similar to the other routes on the morning glory wall with extensions the crux comes immediately after the first set of anchors. A right heel maneuver can prove to be really usefel for making the first few moves after the anchors. |
