Description
The in/out route to access the camel area it is basically where the trail ends, at one time this was bolted, bolts were called “old” in the thomas kelly guide to NC. So they are 30 years old+ bring stuff to back them up. Route wanders up the easiest path on this face, two bolt anchor has no hangers but can be found at head level slightly hidden, cams .75, 1, & 3 can be placed above. Use the largest pine tree to rap in(it is climbers left of the route) may want to leave a fixed line if the climb is wet or just for ease of access.
