Description
Not once have I ever seen chalk on this wall. Hopefully that changes when people realize that there are trad climbs over here. Starting just right of the Black Fly face, climb into the so-called hole in the wall, then choose your exit. This inventively named route follows the left leaning crack out left and past a chockstone to the summit.
Location
Up the trail from the Mir Boulder (aka Roadside Chimney Boulder), walk by Ethnic Cleansing & another set of boulders before a crag appears on the left with numerous cracks. This climb, the leftmost crack just right of Black Fly, has a chockstone lodged partway up.
Protection
Mid-size cams. Toprope off trees at the top.
