Description

You are on your own on this one. The first 40 feet is all overhanging, the first bolt is a good 20 feet of 5.12 up. After the overhanging section are two overhangs that must be mantled, then steep slab climbing to the top. This is a project route, the rating is only what has been encountered so far. Post up with a pic if you get this one.

Location

This route is located by the first pullout in the East Creek area. The route is to the west of the largest tree in the parking area. Look for the painted bolts, the first one is way up there.
