This route climbs the obvious wideness left of Caging the Cobra and then joins the original CTC route, to the top of the formation. It was led with gear up to #5 but could probably be done with smaller gear.

[Hide Comment] Solid jams/arm bars; feet a bit awkward where the wide crack/slot forms a little roof overhang. A couple of big loose blocks at the very start off the ledge, easy to avoid. Worth doing if you are up there and have some big gear. Aug 6, 2017
