Description
This climb is pretty fun for the novelty alone. A progressively widening chimney finally leads to face moves at the very top. Well, for the shorties it does, at even a mere 6' in height I was able to use the back wall all the way up to get my full stem's worth. Bolts make this climb very accessible.
Location
This climb is located in the obvious chimney formed by the detached pillar that is directly in front of the wall forming the famous Spacewalk crack system.
Protection
Bolts to rap anchor

Note: If you're going during a peak season be sure to go early. Every day we drove past the Eagle Lake trail parking lot it was jam packed. Even on the day we went, we got there around 8a and there was zero parking. We had to park in the Vikingsholm parking lot near Emerald Bay and walk. Jul 21, 2020
