Description 

Top rope or run out the first half. Climb a relatively straight line on the "sheerest" part of the wall to the right of the Big Bobino, directly to the anchor. Lots of variations,from easy 5th all the way up to 10+ with enough creativity. Great wall for playing elimination, or doing laps. Keeping to micro crimps makes for some fun/tricky slab problems.

Location 

To the right of the Big Bobino, seek out the line of most resistance. Climb further right for an easy 5th class finger crack.

Protection 

Top Rope: Hike the descent trail to the top. Long webbing for the boulder at the top for the belay/top rope. Equalize with gear, and bring super long webbing to backup on tree branches.
