[Hide Comment] The first half is OK, but the upper half is alot of fun, steep moves on mostly good holds. I found the crux to be getting into the short left dihedral half way up, before it actually gets steep. Jan 6, 2009
[Hide Comment] Really cool climb, but the opening moves before getting into the overhang don't feel very secure and seem to have bad fall potential.

Beta: Ok until trying to get into the 1st little dihedral. There’s a first essentially non existent crimp. Skip to the higher crimp with right hand and pull into the dihedral over an ok right foot. Move into an ok undercling thing. Move up and get left hand into an ok hand over the lip. Then either get intermediate or cross onto a small jagged Little Rock that sticks out and then move up to the relative jugs. You can rest by stemming the eye. Then shoulder move to the big undercling. Get under it and then follow the crack and try to stand up! Feb 10, 2023
