Details
Per
Diego Concha: I called the DCR today and spoke to a ranger who said they no longer allow climbing at Rattlesnake Rocks because of endangered species that live near the crag and are sending climbers to Quincy Quarries nearby.
Description
Layback the vertical crack at the inside corner to the (climber's) right of Six Pack Roof. Continue straight up to the overhanging block with the wide, horizontal crack (the "chunk head"). Find some holds to pull/mantel yourself onto the top of this block (crux).
Location
Look for the inside corner with the vertical crack that tends slightly right. The route finishes at the overhanging block with a large, horizontal crack in the middle.
Protection
Up to 1.5" cams and medium nuts.
