Sunshine Overhang

Description

Climb up a slab split by a hand crack. Grassy clumps add to the natural experience. Cruise up to a narrow chimney below the namesake overhang. Face holds and wicked jams take you up and out of this to the hand crack above. This short but sweet section presents some of the best pure jamming at the Dong. Above, you are presented with a ledge below a steep face of pretty crystals. Rock quality deteriorates, but is good enough for some last pro before scrambling up to the anchors on the boulder.

Location

On the east-facing wall just outside the Second Cave.
