Description
The ADK Rock guide suggests using the corner, but it's grown in. Maybe in 1990 it was clean. This route is nearly a straight line. I used the wide water crack at the beginning and placed pro in the corner. This may have moderated the route a touch, but the crux is near the end anyway. Follow the crack and then follow the right facing corner. Gain the parallel cracks (crux) that take you to the top with several variations possible. There's a small tree at the top but I found using it as a backup and building an anchor with pro in the crack on the wall opposite it worked best using a nut, tricam, .5 and 1 camelots. There's a rap station 6 feet to the right off route. Would suggest walking off (climber's right) to avoid throwing rope three times to overcome trees and ledges.
