Description
This route is directly to the right of Mission Nearly Impossible and to the left of Flower Tower. Pull easier moves down low through a lip (.10a) and into the face. Be careful as there may be loose rock in the middle of the climb. Once you reach the last three bolts, it's game on. Stem up the corner to the key crimp far out right. Once you snag the crimp, chill for a quick rest and then fire the crux. Find the two-finger pocket and continue up the crack. The crux is right after the two-finger pocket, just above the 2nd to last bolt. Be careful climbing to the first bolt as it's rather far (about 15'). The climbing to the first bolt is no harder than 5.8.
