Description

Fun route on the small formation just right of the main wall. We couldn't figure out a name, but then our friend was bummed that country musician Chris LeDoux had died, so that's how we named it (not knowing there was already a route named the same at Indian Creek).

Location

Just to the right of the main wall (past a dirty wide crack).

Protection

4 bolts, 2-bolt anchor with mussy hooks.

Decent rock, not too sustained, a tad sporty for the grade, but consistent with the other routes nearby. If the first bolt seems too high, there is optional pro below it. Feb 17, 2007
