Description

Start up the shallow, bottomed out crack just right of "Hawk's Nest". Parallel sided slots offer decent placements amidst the flaring, shallow crack. The crux comes mid-route with an awkward move through a flare, then a balancy mantle. Gritty choss makes it all the more exciting.

Location

Located 10' right of "Hawk's Nest". Walk-off to the right around the formation.

Protection

.5 to 4" (yellow Alien to #4 Camalot) with a double or two in the 1-2" range. Anchor options range from small to large.
