Description 

Another great dihedral climb at Sinks. This moderate line is a relatively new addition to the area (comment on details and I'll add). This well bolted line is perfect for new leaders.

This line climbs the left leaning dihedral on laybacks and a few pockets and edges. The hardest moves move up and left over a bulge at 3/4 height. Fun hand-traversing to the left lead to the chains from here. Careful of climbers immediately below on the two face lines. A little short for a 3 star route, but great climbing for a 5.7 at Sinks.


Location 

On the left side of the addiction wall, a left leaning dihedral bounds a slabby section of rock. This line climbs the left arching easy dihedral (as opposed to the straight in corner above -- which has a newly bolted 5.11).


Protection 

7-8 bolts to anchors.
