This information is a public crowdsourcing effort between the Access Fund, and Mountain Project. You should confirm closures, restrictions, and/or related dates. Keeping climbing areas open and conserving the climbing environment

Description 

Sustained and sequential face climbing up the right side of wall characterize this short, powerhouse-of-a-route.

A delicate boulder problem through an awkward open-book greets you right off the deck. You can choose to protect it with a .4 or .5 Camalot, or just get a good spot. Once on the ledge, follow sandy pinches, shallow dishes, and small crimps through several cruxes to a somewhat heartbreaker move directly below the anchor.

Rests?--one, perhaps two, if you can sort out the feet and the sweet spot at the small overlap.

Location 

The right hand route.

Protection 

5 bolts and an optional Camalot.
