Always check the NPS website at nps.gov/yose/planyourvisit/… for the most current details and park alerts, and to learn more about the peregrine falcon, and how closures help it survive. This page also shares closures and warnings due to current fires, smoke, etc.
Description
, Squeeze-n-Tease, L.D. Getaway, and Andy Devine are located (in that order, from left to right) on an unnamed cliff a couple hundred feet uphill and west of the main Little Wing formation. All of these routes are of mediocre quality, usually featuring some good climbing mixed with some not-so-good climbing. If you want a cliff with sunny moderates and zero crowds, this isn't a bad choice. There are rap slings on a tree above Andy Devine, which is the easiest way to descend.
------------------
Near the center of the formation is an obvious splitter up a headwall. Below this is a large slab/ledge. Start to the right up a short crack to gain the ledge. Continue up the slab to the left to reach the base of a perfect handcrack. This section is really fun; if it went on 5 times longer this route would be a classic. Steep hand jams leads to easier climbing up a corner.
