Description

A left-arching crack that consists of jamming, stemming, laybacking. Very picturesque and climbed a while back by the local crushers that eventually took their skills down to the New River Gorge.

This climb can be persistently wet after a good bit of rain, but does dry up nicely after about a week of no precipitation.

Location

Climbers right under the Main Overlook by about 30-40 ft. You will not be in a line of fire of anything falling off the overlook. The top of the cliff here is heavily vegetated.
