Description
Fun route if you like heinous chimneys! No, but seriously, it's really fun.
P1) Start up the pillar ( to the left of the cave-like feature ) with an obvious fist-sized crack in it. Continue up and belay from a tree.
P2) Head into the large chimney/crack and look for 3 awesome threads for your first 3 pieces of pro. After you squeeze through the butt-cheeks, head right across a slab and belay from rappel anchor. If you are feeling froggy, head straight up into another chimney (save a number 4 for this section!) and, exiting the chimney through some bushes at the top, build a belay somewhere. This variation is 5.10c.
P3) From rappel anchor, head up the dihedral and follow the good holds to the left up the rappel anchor. If you do the variation, trend right to the good holds and finish at the rappel anchor. Very fun protection options on this pitch.
