Chicken Chickenhead climbs the big corner just below the horizon.

Lower 5.5-5.6 part. I did my best to clean out the leaves and chucked a few large branches off to the side. Fun easy jam crack.
An overview of the left side of the Five Fingers Area. This can be accessed by a cl. 3-4 scramble up the start of Stone the Crows, just beyond CallItWhatYouPlease.

Chicken Chickenhead climbs the big corner just below the horizon.
An overview of the left side of the Five Fingers Area. This can be accessed by a cl. 3-4 scramble up the start of Stone the Crows, just beyond CallItWhatYouPlease.
We rappelled off Bushwhack's 2nd pitch anchors.
RIP Remy. Wasn't tied in properly and refused to wear helmet.
Interesting low angle wide climbing to finish off a long pitch above the crux. Climb until past the chockstones to belay, then downclimb left 20' to the top of the P2 Bushwhack Crack anchor chains to rapp.
Crux of the climb and the chicken chickenhead. You REALLY want to turn out and stem on that thing, or even grab it, but it is too far away! Work the groovy crack and a few features on the left face while squeezing & OWing up the crack.
Entering the crux. Chimney up beneath the roof and then... interesting moves to turn the lip as things get less positive for a while.
Easy walking. No need for pro here.
