Description

This is a 40 ft crack/seam that runs vertically up a boulder downhill from North Side. It is a great route to practice your aid climbing skills on. I used a hammer for the first 20 feet but it opens up near the top. It is easy to set up a TR on this route. There is also a good boulder at the base to build an anchor for soloing.

Location

Follow the rocky drainage beginning in the boulder field down hill until you see a large boulder. The route is on the downhill side of that boulder. You should end up directly downhill of the routes "Glass Menagerie" and "Creatures of Waste"
