Description

Not as sustained as Shadow Dancer, but the crux is a must do, and was the highlight of the crag for me.

Night stalker is long, but most of the climbing is pretty mellow on good rock, until the excellent short/ steep headwall and crux on perfect rock. The exposure on this short boulder problem up high on the route is awesome, the rock is bulletproof, and very smooth for volcanic. A must do for the area.
