Description

Link The Step to Super Pooper or Price of Fear. Do first 2 pitches of The Step (or one pitch with a 70) before the right facing corner set a belay then traverse directly right on jugs (cool rock hole to thread) being very careful to stay under large flakes that will kill everything and then gradually go up and right to belay at the poop stain on Super Pooper.

There's a badly bent piton above the chossy flakes, don't go that way, stay lower then up to a short left facing corner with good gear.

Location

Starts before last pitch of the Step. At the proper start there's a right slanting crumbly crack leading to the chossy flakes, climb under those then up and right.

Protection

Standard rack.
