Description Suggest change

An obvious block-filled chimney on the east end of the lower Major Mass.

This climb is notable not because it's a great climb, but because it's the easiest route from the bottom of the lower tier to the platform south of the Keyhole. (You can get to that platform from above, and probably more safely too, but it means hiking around the east side, up the gully to the ledge between the upper and lower tier, and then scramble back down to the platform.) From this platform you can set anchors for Stettner's overhang, or scramble up some blocks to Keyhole Chimney, or to the top of some Hammer routes.

This is a named climb in Swartling/Mayer but not mentioned in Knower.

Location Suggest change

This is on the right-most (east) end of the lower Major Mass before turning the corner north to Stettner's Overhang and Hammer wall.
