Description

The left side as I will describe it is the left side of the steeper climbing before getting to the slabs....

You'll be at the left end when you notice a few choices of cracks heading up to a large ledge.... Also marking the left side is the boulder problem little overhang.... It is a small roof 8 feet off the ground above a corner.... We will call it, everything from the right edge of the slabs over the Beehive Crack 5.8... (Bolted Anchors for top rope above The Ghost and Beehive Crack/ The Thing.)

This is a good spot for beginners as there are numerous options that can be climbed off of a single anchor.... Basically I like to do a choose your own adventure approach here picking a crack to start and a few different (mostly steep and juggy) finishes to choose from....

Getting There

Walk to the left end of the cliff.... If you get to the slabs, you went too far....
