Access Issue: Area Closed
Details
The Frenchman Lake area and all climbing areas around it are currently closed due to wildfire as of 07/03/21. Due to the severity of the damage caused by the wildfire, this area is not projected to be open throughout 2021 and will probably be closed through the 2022 season due to dangers caused by falling trees logging activity and erosion.
Updates will be available when or if conditions change.

Description
Scramble through or over some boulders at the bottom, and make your way to the left leaning dihedral below and to the left of loose blocky looking spot. This is the crux of the climb, as it is dirty, and the move to get out and up is awkward. Once up there, you will work your way left past a great looking crack on the face, and out to the left under a triangular roof with some fun and interesting moves. Trend right again through some small easy overhangs to reach the anchors at the top. The anchors reside under a small pointy rock that juts out from the top.
Descent: Rap or lower off the bolts, or walk off to the right. No rings/chains right now on the anchors.
