Description

Starts on a short textured face through sharp thin crimps and small feet leading to a ledge. Optional shallow knee bar rest. Reach around the prow to the last good hold and establish yourself on a dead vertical block with friction. (Moving out of the initial stance was my crux) Laying back and choosing precise feet quickly will transport you to freedom and few finger locks. Short climb but a test piece in layering multiple techniques.

Has yet to be led, possibly unsafe considering the ledge and very low crux. Either way - it’s a memorable, potent and rewarding path up stone. You get what you give :)

Rap in and Top Rope :)

Bolt line through the triangular prow roof. Just right of ultraviolet.

For top rope access there is a rappel anchor above the climb which is easy to walk around and set up. Rapping about 15 feet ill get you to the prism anchor.
