Description

In case you missed the giant basket-shaped building on your way over, maybe you can get a better view of it from the cliff-top.  Well, it's worth going up to have a look anyway... 

An extension of "The Basket Case."  Go through the slot to the left of the chains, pull over a small roof and then work the slab to the top, weaving slightly right and then left at the rim.  Don't count your eggs until you've got 'em safely in the basket.

Very rarely wet except in a downpour or if ground-water is really flowing heavy... If it is wet, it will only be at the very top of the route.

Location

Middle of Poison Ivy Wall; same start as The Basket Case.

To eliminate heinous rope drag up top, extend the perma with a draw, and then back-clean the first bolt.  

Protection
