Description

This buttress lies above Ivy Buttress. A good way to approach the climbs here is to climb one of the climbs on Ivy first.

The left end of the buttress has some good corner climbs.

Getting There

From the left side of the crag, hike up the trail that follows the side of the crag. Traverse right to the foot of the buttress, the first climb you'll see if the steep Left Hand Crack.
