Description

This might not be the first ascent, but we couldn't find it in any books. This route starts as "Lucky Dawg" and is between "Lucky Charms" and "Third Time's a Charm". Go up the ramp, and take the obvious crack up the wall. Instead of moving up over the face, take the left leaning crack. The crux is getting into that crack.

The route is still dirty and lots of foot holds break off. Make sure the second wears a helmet! But with some traffic, that might become a nice route.

Protection

Standard rack to 3". Rap of on Moosedog Tower rap station.
