Description
Climb the dihedral to the roof with a large jammed block. Pass the roof on the left and continue up the vague buttress staying right of route 8.
Location
Start in a wavy dihedral beneath a large roof that is marked by a square-cut undercling block. A few feet right of the start of route 8.
Protection
After the initial bouldering move into the wavy dihedral at the base of the route you can place a good finger-sized cam in the jammed block assuming you are 5' 9" or above in height. Part way through the moves over the overhang I found a good medium sized nut that protected the final moves through the hang. The buttress above has some widely spaced gear but you may have to search for it. Good top rope anchors can be placed at the cliff top.
