Description
This is a cool route located on the right side of the West face just around the corner to the left of Free Drop.
The line goes over a short, finger crack, roof thing in to a varying crack system. The route is very unique and fun except trying to clip the anchors. At the top, you have to do the weird mantel thing out of the bulge, hand crack that is pushing you out Stand up, and place a small piece in the seam or a small finger-sized cam way out right. Then stretch way out there to clip the chains. I felt it was a bit harder than the 10a rating that Bernard Gillett listed in his book.
