This rout is located about 150 yards north of Thanksgiving Rock. The route is visible when it is in, to the right if you are going up Mitchell Trail. Scramble off to the right once you hit the top. This will put you back at the bottom of the route.

stoppers, cams to 3", a couple of 11cm ice screws, screamers, and a few trad runners. Use creative natural anchors at the top of the gully.
