Description

The crux comes right off the bat: jam through the initial overhang, then hang a right around the boulder. Pull over a small bulge into a left-facing corner, and either take the finger seam or the nice flake to the top. This route climbs better than it looks from the ground.

Location

This route is about 20 yards north of the descent gully, not quite to the property line a bit further up. You'll know you're there if you see the stuck Metolius TCU in the starting crack.

Protection

This route will eat everything from a #4 Friend to a #4 stopper, emphasis on small gear. Plenty of cracks at the top to set up a gear anchor, just watch for a few movable blocks.

NOTE: If anyone has more info, please add it!
