Description Suggest change

A bit too physical to recommend as an intro to mixed climbing, but by appearances it has been scratched around on for a bit. Can be climbed bone dry, but is pretty fun when the corner is snotted up or the top is spitting daggers! The description is for when it's dry. Formerly a toprope, this was bolted in 2023 by Adam and Kristen.

A low overhang leads to a corner. When the hooks run out at an obvious quartz pocket on the right wall, step right onto the ledge with either desperate, cowardly choss-hooking or yanking a hard-to-find, physical yet bomber steinpull out of the pocket and reaching into the crack. Yeehaw!

A note on rock quality and early-season training laps: this part of the quarry is pretty much falling apart. Even though it's a fun drytool climb, this thing loosens up a lot when the cliff isn't literally frozen together. Look carefully at those upper blocks, contemplate what would happen if one of them ripped off, and maybe test them on rappel before trying the route.

The obvious open book between the right and center flows.
