Description

This line runs directly up the face below the Tara Gaga chains and doesn't use the corner crack. Unfortunately, the second section of the climb is hard and very fragile making it difficult to find solid holds. There is a small pocket that you can reach by standing on the ledge of grass and crank from there.

The middle section gets easier and the top section is 5.10+, but mostly because of dirty holds and sloping pockets.

One day, somebody may want to bolt this line. But hopefully the name will not change!

Location

This line is located to the left of Taragaga and to the right of Enkefet. Use the grassy ramp to get a good position for the first section of climbing.

Protection

Toprope only. Uses the same anchors as the trad line 'Taragaga' next door.
