Johnny leading


Description 

The majority of this route is handcrack. There are a couple of wider pods and one section of tight-hands. Higher up there is a smaller crack out to the left that can be used. Good route, lots of fun.


Location 

Starts on the left side of the buttress. Route begins on the face to the right of Elbow Vices, down near Think Pink.


Protection 

Green to Gold Camalots should do it. A #3 Camalot could be nice to protect a wide pod higher up.

First lead in Indian Creek. Gotta come back!

Agreed. This is mostly hands, but the pods make this climb a challenge. The escaping the final pod involves some tenuous face moves off to the left before pulling back right.
