Description
The quality of the rock is in general quite poor (sandy), however, there is some interesting climbing in between.
The route is serious regardless of the grade, due to the poor rock quality. We do not recommend it, except for experienced climbers who seek challenges in climbing routes with poor rock.
Pitch 1: The route starts with a fist crack under a big chimney. You climb through it and then to the ledge on the left. From here you can see a left side corner on your right, but it's easier to reach it from left. Continue up to the end of the corner, then turn left to the anchor (2 bolts).
Pitch 2: Starts with a fist crack on the right, continues with an offwidth/chimney, then through a window. Continue with another chimney, then left over the slabs. Belay on the big ledge.
Pitch 3: Climb a second dihedral on the right (very sandy). Belay on the big rock under a corner.
Pitch 4: Climb a corner to the ledge. Go left and climb a nice hand crack to the top.
Descent: Right along the ledge, scramble down to the easier slabs. One rappel (tree).
