Description

This small, overhanging face lies hidden up and left of the Tumbling Rainbow formation. Bebop Tango (5.11a) and Latin Swing (5.11b) lie on the right section and are the best climbs here. Slam Dance (5.11c), and Solosby (5.10b R) are lie to the left and are worth doing, but seldom done.

Getting There

If you downclimb off the Tumbling Rainbow formation (down and left), you end up passing directly in front of this juggy face. To reach it from below, hike up toward the Tumbling Rainbow formation, but before you head up and right to that rock, head up and left into a cave-like feature. Tunnel through, and you end up below this short overhaging wall.
