Description

Solid rock and fun climbing up a steep, clean face.

Start up blocky features aiming for a steep finger crack.  Folllow crack and steep slab to top of route.

Route ends on a large ledge.  Anchor is/was a dead tree which was a burned stump most likely from a lightening strike.  This anchor may not be available so plan on going further back and finding another option.

Location

On a flat, shorter face to the right of the prow and past the cluster of routes at and on either side of the prow (Harmony).

Just right of a fairly large, blocky roof cutout.  Look for the finger crack in the middle of the steep slab.

Protection

Double set of finger sized pro and trad rack.
