Description Suggest change

This route is fun, is on great rock, and is the easiest way to summit Fiddlehead from the north (to my knowledge). I haven't seen it documented anywhere else, so I thought I'd include it here.

Start as per Surfing in Samsara (5.7; Richard Rossiter, solo, 1989) atop a large boulder resting against the northwest face of Fiddlehead. After the short, steep 5.0 section, walk the slanted ledge rightward past a bolt anchor to a large flake. Climb the flake (exposed) to reach solid jugs over the lip of a small roof. Crank the roof, and follow more jugs up and left to the summit.

Descend with one or two rappels from bolted anchors.

Protection Suggest change

Several cams up to #3 Camalot and some slings should suffice.
