Description Suggest change

Start in a steep right-facing off-fingers / thin hands crack below a bulge, pull over the bulge and follow the low-angle wide hands crack to the anchors that narrows towards the top. This route is fine, but it's nothing to write home about. The guidebook gives it 3/5 stars, but I wasn't as impressed.

BEWARE: there is a very large detached block directly below the start of this route. It has chalk on it, but DO NOT PULL ON IT. We marked it with an X since it shifted when one of us pulled on it, but it might be necessary to access the 5.9 section of the steep crack at the start of the route. This route would likely be harder without it, which is why we didn't trundle it.

Location Suggest change

Look for a large bulge with a right-facing steep thin hands / large fingers crack through it. Step up onto a small ledge with a detached block to start the route.

Protection Suggest change

0.75 - 3 inch cams, mostly 3s.
