Description
A great beginner route with excellent exposure. Rated 5.1 in old guidebooks, this route seems to warrant a slightly stiffer rating. While the climbing is easy, the protection is difficult to find and place, making it not the best beginner lead.
Begin in alcove in the center of the face below the Eye. Go up the low-angled crack/gully until it steepens. Move a bit right onto a steep face. Go up on generally good holds to reach the Eye. Belay from gear.
Descent: Scramble east down the back side of the formation and back around (north) to your pack.
