Description
Loose rocks small and big (including a known big loose one a bit more then halfway up lying flat on a ledge), slippery lichen and moss on rock surfaces. Not ready for "prime time". Only for parties with a desire and knowledge to safely detect and remove loose rock and clean rock surface.
Thoughtful moves in a variety of different rock situations.
. (though this route goes into a chimney, no real "chimneying" moves are needed).
Up left-side face of stacked blocks. Next a bit left up to wide chimney. Up chimney (left inside wall) 10-15 ft almost to its top. Then exit from chimney with big step across gap onto face to right of chimney. Up to wide Left-facing corner/gully. A bit below its top, exit Left and up.
warning: The rock on and around this route has not been climbed much yet, and much of the rock is still breakable and loose -- so the belayer and other people should stand far away from underneath the climber - (and if possible, behind a large tree).
. . . (Lots of vegetation on this rock as of 2016. Be prepared when climbing to navigate around protruding trees and branches, and dealing with holds slippery with grass, lichen, moss, dirt).
