It seems that the shadow has the better technique of the two(...we can learn a lot from our shadows...more than just the angle of the sun...and Blue Skies to everyone).

This route is great! The curvature of the crack at the bottom makes this one interesting. The hands are perfect. This is a must if you are at Way Rambo.

From the anchor, with a directional or two you can toprope the dihedral to the left. Probably 12- with some really desperate tip-liebacking.

The dihedral to the left was a really fun TR, did it back in '04 or'05. I would agree that .12- seems about right. Wonder if it's been lead?

I was kinda hung over when I got on this, but it was still a highlight of the trip. If you have kinda largish hands, DO NOT MISS THIS CLIMB! It's a beautiful little cruise on beautiful rock.
