Description

Some fun moves. Too bad it's not longer.

Start on the ridge which forms the right edge of the obvious gully near the left end of this cliff.
Up the ridge to its top. Scramble a bit, then finish to right of obvious high perched rock.

warning: The rock on and near this route has not been climbed much yet, and some of the rock is still breakable and loose -- so the belayer and other people should stand far away from underneath the climber or someone setting up top anchor.

. . . (Lots of vegetation on this rock as of 2018. Be prepared when climbing to navigate around protruding trees and branches, and dealing with holds slippery with grass, lichen, moss, dirt).
