Description

Great climb! A little scarier than it is hard. Technical I think by Shagg standards. Climb the start of Great Escape, then instead of "escaping" to Great Escapes" anchors (hence the name) continue straight up then veer left through techy and exposed moves to the crux. Fun Climbing! The "ORIGINAL" line BTW.

[NOTE: Name changed to "Shagg Zag" 5/27/20 to conform with original name and current guidebooks.  R Hall ME Admin. ]
