Description

This is a good hole. To start, climb into the hole and wiggle up. Next, bid a farewell to the warmth of the hole and claw your way out. Once out of the hole, belay your second up and traverse directly across to the tree rappel on Flanders Field. I would recommend this hole.

Location

Locate the big hole next to Flanders Field.

Protection

Headlamp, single rack to #2/3 and maybe some nuts/tricams. Screws and spectres for an anchor.
