Description

Climb the blocks on the left side of the vertical gully. Master a bulge (crux) and move up to a very thin and completely runout face (2nd crux) for the last 20 feet or so. Unprotected jug haul for the last 5-10 feet. Very heady lead. Clean path through lichen on both sides shows the way.

Location

Start 10' right of Blonde Ambition (30' right of the Giant's Niche). Use rap rings at the top of Blonde Ambition to descend.

Protection

Gear to 2", but most of the gear will be under 1 inch.
