Description

Seldom climbed. Start in front of a detached block with campus moves. Crux is the whole middle sequence. While no move is too hard, it involves consistent v7, through a crimp traverse and big moves on classic tunnel slopey crimps.

For full value huck a big move at the last bolts and avoid stemming the wall to your right, but nothing is stopping you from doing the latter.

Great climbing, and quality rock!
