1) Never park or camp overnight at the access points.
2) Always park off the pavement, taking great care to avoid blocking the gates.
3) Clean up after your dogs. (Local climbers are finding abandoned doggie poop bags.)
4) Pack out all trash and TP, including picking up after others.
5) Use the outhouses if at all possible.
Description
This is basically a harder version of Escapade, so if you like that route you'll enjoy this one too.
Climb a mostly vertical/slightly overhanging face on good holds past a low crux to another heartbreaker slab crux at the top.
It's amazing how slick Gorge slabs can look, but trust your feet, don't tense up and success is in the bag.
Location
You'll find this enjoyable and challenging route just left of Escapade, which makes it the leftmost climb on this small crag.
