Description 

Located in the Uneva Canyon. Drive 3.2 miles from I.70 to right turn . The trail head (map)is a 1/4 mile from the turn. Follow the dirt road into the canyon the route is just past the entrance on the left side ,a right facing corner with fairly steep crack climbing.The climb stays in the shade most of the day. On the whole the rock is very good as is the protection. One could rap off after the first two pitches,the easier last pitch is not of the same quality ,but perhaps worth doing for the view ... P1).140'. A rampleads into the corner . Nice climbing up cracks to double anchors. 140' 5.9-. P2).Continue up cracks to double anchors. 90' 5.9-. P3). From the anchors move up the slab to the right onto easy ground . Trend right through a nitch on to a blunt ridge .follow to a groove on the right that leads to summit ridge and rap anchors on the left. 150' 5.5. F.A. Paul Ross Layne Potter 1st July 2004
