Description
Begin with a short, easy scramble up to a ledge with a tree - the route starts here. Work up a corner past three bolts, staying in the crack in the corner is about 5.8, but there are plenty of face moves and stemming to make it 5.4 if you climb it 3 dimensionally. After the third bolt, the route eases up for a bit while you climb up a fun dihedral with good placements. About halfway up, a crack forms in the right wall for gear. A bolt towards the top leads you to the anchor.
For a TR, we recommend that you leave the top of the first three bolts clipped to the belay line for a smoother rope run, or belay from over by the base of Grasshopper.
