Description

"The tree I had in the garden as a child, my beech tree, I used to climb up there and spend hours.
I took my homework up there, my books, I went up there if I was sad,
and it just felt very good to be up there among the green leaves and the birds and the sky." -J.G.

Bring your stem game on this one! Work through the bulge with powerful stemming and crimping- expect the difficulty to vary with height. Take some time to enjoy the beautiful crystals before Jane sics her chimps on you. Truly enjoyable face and feature climbing leads to the anchors.

Location

Obvious large corner to the right of Rattletale.

Protection

8 bolts, chain anchor.

[Hide Comment] It's just an awkward feature to climb. I'm not sure the bolts could be in much better locations. May 3, 2019
