Description
Face climbing fairly sustained at the grade as far as it goes -- which is too short.
Roughly straight up to left side of tree. Just below top, step left to above other tree, and finish through weakness (or just stop before stepping left).
. . Thick horizontal root of tree is on, but its trunk is not.
. . Upper crack above tree is not on (because it's on the next climb R).
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 2017. Be prepared when climbing to navigate around protruding trees and branches, and dealing with holds slippery with grass, lichen, moss, dirt).
