Description

Climb up licheny rock and slab to obvious, steep black streak just right of faint corner. A tad sequential up high, perhaps. Feel free to use the crack to the left but that might feel pretty hard. A short little traverse back right at the top to the anchors.

You may want to back clean the draw from the third or fourth bolt down low to reduce rope drag later.

Location

Right-most route at the Roost, up the obvious black streak

Protection

11 bolts to chains with biners
