Description

On the east face of the Lower Tier, immediately right of the route with two giant holes at the bottom. Very pumpy and unrelenting (5.11+) for the first several bolts then eases up to mid 5.10 for the rest. There are cruxy moves at the top and bottom of the climb, and knowing which holds to use is key. Trust your feet and be patient.
