Description
Start about 15 feet up and right of the start of Bambi Meets Godzilla at an easy, slightly left-leaning crack. Carefully duck under a big oak branch to get started in the crack, then go up the crack to its top. Climb past two bolts on the face above the crack then go up and right to a ledge. Go up a varnished crack on the right arete of the upper block (bolt), then move around left on the face and up to the top.
An oak tree has taken over the original start to this climb. The original old first bolt is about 15 feet off the ground and four feet left of the initial left-leaning crack, under limbs of the oak tree. That original bolt was not replaced, but the others on the route have been.
