Access Issue: Writing in chalk Details

Please stop putting the dreaded "X", "Bees" or "Snake" on the rock faces. Please be smart and conscious of others.

Stop putting tick marks on the rock unless you are going to brush them off when you are done on the route. This goes against the ethic of the area and in the eyes of the locals is the same as graffiti. Rock climbing is an outdoor sport and guess what lives outdoors? That's right, bees, wasps, snakes, and even bears! We all know they exist, no reason to write it on the walls.

Description

Follow crimps up to a good horizontal. From there, follow the left leaning crack up to the roof. Style points for the no hands head/neck rest under the roof. Pull the roof, then follow the acute, right facing dihedral to the top.
