Description 

If you hike up to that offwidth you might as well climb this too. Nice arete climbing on good rock with a fun mantle or two and lots of nice palming and red granite arete jug hauling.


Location 

It's the arete between the pine tree and the offwidth.


Protection 

5 draws, .75 Camalot, maybe a yellow TCU, chains.

Definitely what Tyler said. Troy, thanks for poppin' that bolt in. Its easier than half a finger and more technical than satans.

oh, and James, you're waaay younger than all of us!
