Description

Start in the back of the corner under a roof. Traverse left past two bolts with a bit of demanding climbing up to a good rest. Move straight up through a small overlap and stem into the corner. The actual crux is clipping the anchors, which requires a few interesting trick moves. Don't grab the anchor if you want full value. This route is rather fun because of its overhung nature and gymnastic style even though itÂ’s short.

Location

As you traverse from right to left at Bulldog Balcony, you will be aiming for a distinct corner/semi cave area on the far left side of the Balcony (See additional description about the approach for the Balcony). Immediately left of Call Me Crazy is Cognac Corner.

Protection

Four bolts to cold shut anchors.
