Description

This climb has fun technical moves that takes a bit o' strategy. The finish is the hardest section so try to conserve your energy. You'll find a good rest half way up while "straddling" the climb.

Location

Mid section of the formation starts in a left leaning crack. If you look at the top of the climb you'll see a dinosaur shape that's fairly prominent...a brontosaurus shape to be exact. Rap chains up top, however DO NOT belay off the chains...they're or rappelling only.

Protection

3 bolts to rap anchor.
