Description

Climb the north-west prow/arete via crimps and side pull pinches to a small shelf. From here, continue climbing straight up. Don't deviate too far left or the top-out officially ends on another line.

So, continue up onto easier, but spookier climbing above.

This climb is still very dirty but will clean up nice. I would have given it 3 stars otherwise.

Location

Located on the "Cross Block." About 20 feet EAST of the "Black Pearl" Boulder. The boulder features a cross like crack formation on its WEST face.

Protection

Many pads and spotters!!
