Description 

Fun and sustained, Riff Raff is a super climb. You may think you've got it made after pulling the crux roof move, but the crack above the roof doesn't let up on your arms. Keep moving!

Starting below a thinly-protected face, move up on moderate but runout slab climbing. Head for a weakness in the roof above with a black streak running up the crack. Pull the roof and power up the crack on steep ground to the top.

Location 

Starts just left of Sleepy Hollow. Rap from anchors.

Protection 

Small to medium gear; bolted anchors.
