Description

One of the earliest climbs to go up. First assent by Frank Harvey before the other areas were discovered by Tony Robinson and Glenn Ritter.

This is not to be missed! Really great movement with some reaching in the middle. Not quite vertical. Moderate climbing on good holds until the middle of the climb, then fun (1980ish) 5.9 crux, then great climbing to the anchors.

Location

Walking into the first area from the parking lot past the old homesteads, walk past a few boulders until you see the larger overhanging blocks. Turn left and it is a tall white face just to the left side of a corner.
