Description

Climb up on top of a boulder at the base of a hand crack that bisects the formation. Cut right onto the face, and up past 3 bolts to a 2 bolt anchor.

Location

This is the dark brown formation easily seen from the road with the crack up the middle of the formation. Park on the main road and hike over and up to the formation. It is west of Invisible Baby Jones/Roman Bath area, and east of Shave Your Bump.

Protection

Maybe a piece at the start if you wish. 3 QDs for the bolts.
