The CCC has created the list linked below of accessible and inaccessible climbing areas with some caveats. If you decide to head out for a day of climbing, please do not attempt to go to those marked ‘inaccessible’. Please note that all areas in WNC will have extensive tree damage and if you head out, use extra caution for all the trees above, especially on a windy day. Rock fall potential is also highest after a big weather event. Please use extra caution while climbing and prepare to self rescue if injured. Injury response time will be greatly limited for any injury currently, especially for a remote injury. Cell service is limited in all areas. Parking at accessible crags in the WNC/ Upstate SC region will likely be challenging. If the parking lot is full, go to a different area and do not park illegally or in a road. Make a plan B before leaving your house. Expect road detours on the way to the crag. NCdrive.gov updates road closures. Once you get to the crag, expect many trees blocking access trails and of course, come volunteer with the CCC to help us bring our climbing areas back!

Description
Regarded in the guidebook to be just as good as The French Maid. Try the moves and you will see that is a valid assessment.
Start the same as the French Maid, but, at the point where you hit the gaston left hand, go right hand instead to utilize the hold as a sidepull. Shuffle your left hand on some small crimps on the shaded underside of the boulder to hike your feet up. Make a long left hand toss to a three finger, 2-pad edge, just below the lip of the boulder. Core up, compress with a heel hook (or 2) and get to the glory jug at the top of the fin to top out.
