Description
An OK climb with OK rock. It starts off a little chossy but improves quickly. After passing a short band of softer rock (crux) at mid-route the rock quickly improves to bomber. The climb is a wide crack in a left-leaning, left-ward hooking corner that leads to the summit ridge of Ridge 2 in Skunk Canyon.
You can do this as a single pitch with a 60 or 70M rope.

Location
Go up the back side of Ridge 2 passing the bolted routes such as Doric Dihedral, Watchmaker Steady and Beware the Future. Continue for perhaps 100+ meters and stay back from the cliff line somewhat so as to be able to spot a large, left-facing, corner system. At the bottom, it will be less obvious and appear more like a system of flakes. Carefully climb these to gain the corner system and continue up and left to the ridge, finishing about 20 meters south of the lowest downclimb gully.
