Southern Comfort is a well-protected easy climb that begins at the toe separating the south and east faces.

It is fun for the grade and also can be used to gain access to the ledge where the south face anchors are located if you want to set up TRs.

From there you could top rope Southern Comfort or Crown Royal.

Right at the toe separating the south face and the east face. At bottom far left of the East face.

8 quickdraws. 2-bolt anchor with rap rings.

Southern Comfort. First ledge is shown just below the top ledge.

Nice easy climb that gains access to other routes for TR and connects to a second pitch to the top of the rock. Sep 21, 2018
