Description Begin in the left facing corner that is located about 20 feet left of the low roof which forms a cave in the center of Sunnyside Crags. Climb the corner most of the way up, then move left onto the face. An easy hand traverse on loose holds takes you left to a ledge and a communla anchor. This is a good beginners lead, plus gives you the opportunity to top rope the excellent Magellanic Cloud.
Protection Standard rack to #3 camalot, bring long slings

| Climbs better than it looks. No idea why we traverse left to the shared anchor. A 5.7 roof tops the corner and would be a much nicer way to go... if there was an anchor up there. |

| This route is more like 100ft, as when you lower off it takes an entire 60m. I agree with Russ that continuing up through the roof seems like it would be a much better finish. Slightly better than 2 *'s. |

| First ever trad lead over 100 feet. Great c,IBM with lots of rests and foot holds. Watch out for rope drag. Definitely try to extend the climb when making the traverse over to the anchors. |
