Description
My favorite route on the wall. It is located near the south end of the wall and can be identified by a large right-slanting undercling flake about 2/3 of the way up the climb. There are not many protection opportunities for the first 60 feet or so. I used a small cam in a small vertical crack near the bottom to protect some slab moves before the easy face with large buckets. This bucketed face leads to horizontal cracks the fun undercling and a runout easy Finish on huge holds.
Descend: The easiest way to get off this is to go down and left from the top to some chain anchors at the top of Aspen Leaf. Rappel from there into the Bloody Fingers Corridor.
