Details
This cliff line is on private property. If there are "NO TRESPASSING" signs up, and you choose to climb there, that's a personal choice. Attempts have been made to contact the landowner by the local climbing organization, but thus far, there has been no progress.
Description
A fun strenuous route featuring steep climbing and great position out on a buttress. Begin on Barnacle Bill and after the first few bolts go left around the buttress on big holds andup through the bulging section (crux). It is run out towards the top but the difficulty eases off significantly.
Location
This climb shares start with Barnacle Bill (5.11b). Follow Barnacle Bill for a few bolts between good horizontals. Just below small blocky roof go left on jugs passing a bolt and rock up to good holds out on face. Gain stance and then continue up easier ground to top. Use long draws in beginning to avoid rope drag
