Description
This steep arete sits around the corner to the left of the other routes and like its name, is in the shade all the time. The climb starts with technical pockets and edges up to a big pocket jug. From here a quick layback up the arete leads to a double sided flake/rest. The clip after the rest is very difficult (esp. for short people) and there is velcro for setting up a "reachable" long draw. The next section is the bouldery crux moving out left to gain a large hueco. Steep jugs lead from here. Great bouldery route other than the hard clip.
