Description

Begin as for Octernal, but avoid the pumpy traverse after the lip by transitioning onto the right side face and climbing straight up into a spicy top out.

Probably easier than the main route since it skips the traverse, the crux of both routes comes before the lip though.

Location

On the meth lab boulder opposite the road

The topout on this thing is scary for sure. I think I'd give this V7 and Octernal V7/8. Jul 14, 2017

Agreed. Last time I was there I moved the big log out of the landing so its a little bit better now. Still requires a lot of trust in dirty moss covered foot holds though. Jul 14, 2017
