Description

This quality route unfortunately suffers from a no h-hands ledge rest in the prominent cave that splits the two difficult sections. Begin with difficulty up an overhanging scoop just below the triangular cave. After the rest, head left, then up on thin, sharp crimps.

Location

This route is in the center of Cathedral Rock, and climbs just left of prow immediately left of the major, roof-capped dihedral that splits the crag. A prominent, triangular-shaped cave sits right on the line, about 15 feet off the deck.
