Description

P1: climb the steep finger crack to a rest and then climb a lower angle crack, still difficult, to the bolted belay. Each section of the pitch contains a crux section (5.10).

P2: climb straight up a hand sized crack above the belay. Continue via the path of least resistance and traverse right to a second set of bolts.

Location

The route is left and below the north face of Sugarloaf on the small west facing cliff band. Look for a beautiful finger crack. This is the start of the climb (there was a dead tree lying somewhat horizontal at the bottom). Rap the route, ca. 150 feet.
