Description

This is a fun climb up an orange wall. The bottom is a little hollow and should be climbed delicately, however the holds are cool. The crux is turning a roof with good pro on solid rock. The crack thins down to fingers at the top.

Location

This climb is on the cliff just east of the Owl. Approach as for The Owl Bypass but continue all the way up the hill. The climb is right facing, look for the orange blocks and flakes.
