Description

The route is located in the Central Zone. Descend Falling Tom gully and walk north. The route is marked by a yellow '16b.' The route starts at a ledge. This ledge is approximately a meter above the trail proper. The route follows the obvious book fold with a crack that runs continuously up the fold. The crack will end at a prominent bulge. To the left is a ledge with a large tree. This is your exit.

Protection

Trad. Bring the kitchen sink.

[Hide Comment] There are no anchors on the 5.8 direct finish unlike what the guide says, and the last ~15 has no bomber pro outside of the fixed pins. Oct 10, 2013

[Hide Comment] Greg Urbanski ain't lying. The 5.8 finish is a face climb with a gross looking pin and a shiny new one higher up. No bolts on either finish. We may return to bolt some anchors on the easy finish, this is too good of a route to be skipped. Sep 18, 2023

[Hide Comment] Climb some interesting moves up into easier climbing with some committing feet. Gear is easy, nothing smaller than a .4 or bigger than a .3 was needed. Finding good gear before the ledge pull might be the scariest part for new climbers. 5.5 old school grade, be a 5.9 or better sport climber for this one. Sep 18, 2023
