Description 

The obvious feature from across the road on the Bihedral. Just downstream from the big tree at the Bihedral parking area. Face climb up and into a small right-facing dihedral, 9- R. Move left about 20-25 feet up. Up to an overlap. Then fire for the top. 160 feet. Rap off a tree or downclimb right or left (loose).

In 2009, someone has retrobolted this line. Now ~10 bolts are easily clippable from the first 60 feet of this line. Sadly, there are 3 bolts before where you would get your first piece of protection. Please remove these retrobolts.

Protection 

Pro to #4 Camalot. Lightly protected.
