Description

Must do classic! A well engineered route that is not your typical plumb line climbing. Follow the left to right rising squiggly dike for about 35'. Traverse is somewhat tricky. Then pulling onto the slab will test your granite skills. Straight up from here, crossing several more dikes, bring finger size gear for a couple spots (do-able without, but nice to have). At least for sure one .5 camalot, I think.

Location

On the South side of Wrinkled Rock. Which is the larger rib of rock in the Chopping Block area. Hike to top of gully and locate large horizontal dike.
