Description 

The first half is a great 5.9 warm up- then undercling out the awesome roof, clip the bolt, and then good luck pulling the foothold free transition from the underclings on flared big fingers into the flared chimney. Amazing it goes free, because it seems to just barely go. A worthy send. Would be 4 stars if not for the horrible silt that cakes the wall under the roof and in the upper crack.


Location 

Obvious left facing corner with huge leftward undercling roof to a single bolt protecting the lip- finishing in a flare/corner. A 70 meter just barely gets you down.


Protection 

.75 camalots for the start(4), with 1 camalots(2)in the occasional pod for the first half- .5 camalots (4) out the undercling lieback roof, and orange metolius (4) above the roof. One finger sized piece for the finale(1 yellow metolius). The bolt is essential to keep the rope from jamming in the crack as you climb past the roof.
