Description

Matched start on big ledge in back of roof, move out to the pinch and follow with a hard move out to the face. Move up the face into the seam trending left until you can reach the good chicken head on top left corner. Great feet along the left side. 

Beware of potentially looser flake to the right of the chicken head. I didn't want to pry it out and deface the rock unnecessarily since the chicken head is bomber.

Please also be aware and cautious with the rock bridge. It's solid - until it isn't.

Protection

2-3 larger pads. Fill in the open slot between ground boulders with a stiff pad when first trying it or you risk sliding into the abyss.
