Description
Overhanging except for the central gully.
About 25 feet tall. Facing SW.
Top-Rope: One way to get access to set up an anchor using trees or rocks above top of this cliff is to walk about 100 feet right and scramble up. Another way is to climb up the central gully (5th class).
warning: The rock around this sector has not been climbed much yet, and much of the rock is still breakable and loose -- so the belayer and other people should stand far away from underneath the climber.
