Description
Some interesting moves at the difficulty grade. Too bad it's not longer.
Up left side of low blocks to a wide ledge. Then up the face above at the line of weakness (or irregular wide groove with a couple of corners) which is three or four feet right of the left edge of the wide chimney with roof at top.
. . (There are two lines of weakness -- this is the left one).
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).
