Description The Fang is a small pinnacle to the right of "Bolee Gold".
Bolder up onto the ramp of "Bolee Gold", then climb a 5.9 finger crack, and enter a chimney, forming the left side of the pinnacle.
Rappel from bolts or continue up "Harding's Chimney".
Protection Pro to 2".

| The crux is working up the short crack at the start. Solid finger locks lead to a couple insecure pods. Jam those real good , try to get a toe in the thin crack , and reach high for a solid hand jam . The short chimney is fun and you make an airy exit onto easy face climbing up to the anchor.
You can TR various bolted routes from the anchor.
It is a fun climb. |

| Climbed it today, a bat lives in there. Heard strange noises, cross-referenced with youtube, confirmed the noises i heard squeaking at me were a bat.
Super fun route. No sighting of the bat, but I suspect he lives in the 4" crack in the back of the chimney... |
