Description
This is a slab climb, the crux is about mid way with the holds becoming sparse, but with enough friction it is easily overcome.
Plenty of big holds on the climb that is very positive. Several wide cracks along the route may make it easier if you traverse right to offer protection
There are two sets of shelfs up near the top before reaching top. After the second shelf, climb becomes a lot more vertical.
Location
South of Flaming Rock is an unknown rock - home of Radachello.
To access this location park at campsite 30, and head north by northeast thru the sage brush until you find the start of a granite slab. Some minor scrabbling to the top will show a long 8 ft deep pocket filled with sand and includes a large tree and boulder in the middle. These can be used as anchors to go over the western edge.
