Description

This is a very cool, Scottish-esque corner. It's sustained, but even the ledgier moves before the corner require attention - varying between solid hummock sticks to cracks-without-constrictions. The corner itself requires camming, torquing and delicate feet. It is really engaging climbing.

Location

This is the obvious open book 30 feet right of Two Dragons/Dragon Slayer. It could make for a variation-start to Two Dragons. One would either need to traverse left to P2 on slab or bring a bolt kit for steep climbing above.

Protection

Small cams (0.5s and 0.75s), Aliens, and small-to-medium nuts protect this route well.
