Description Suggest change

Beautiful low-angle slab pitch following an RP seam which accepts just enough gear to prevent a horror show. Some of the best rock The Mtn has to offer, and the movement is memorable and improbable.

This is one of few pitches at this crag that I would recommend previewing on TR before attempting a lead. The gear is very specific although good enough when you get it.

When the seam ends, follow Camptown Races to the top of the Flying Buttress. 

Location Suggest change

It’s a variation of the Classic. It starts on the ledge right of the Cherry tree at the base of Karl’s Korner’s last pitch. 

Protection Suggest change

Doubles of Blue and Red Ballnuts.
A handful of small wires (yer smallest), including offsets.
A few finger sized cams plus some larger cams for an anchor on top. One fixed knifeblade (replaced after much internal debate).

The Waugh guide shows 4 fixed pins (and a grade of 5.11). The Cramer guide shows 2 fixed pins (and 5.12a). When I got here there were none just lots of grass in the scars. All the scars take gear except where I replaced the pin.
