Description Suggest change

It’s hard to say which is the best line on this magnificent cliff, but this Kurt Albert masterpiece is certainly in the running. With impeccable stone, massive jugs throughout, and perfectly gymnastic movement, the climbing is engaging and memorable from bottom to top. An undercut start leads to easy liebacking along the obvious flake, and a good stance below the looming headwall. A surprisingly sequential series of long, monkey-like swings leads up the steep bulge. The holds just get bigger as the pump builds, resulting in a fantastic pump and a few desperate slaps pulling onto the coral slab.

Location Suggest change

Begins up the obvious right-facing flake on the far right end of the cliff.

Protection Suggest change

5 bolts to a high 1 Bolt anchor.
