Description
Start in the water with a handjam and begin working up the less than good finger jams. Small pod in middle good for the feet. After the main finger crack you can scramble higher to the right on various holds and cracks. Water capacity was at 45% when we did this, probably would be a much sicker line if the waterline dropped!
Location
Right after the first horseshoe upon entering 50 Mile Creek. On your left. OW Pod route to the right and handcrack to the left.
