Description
This route is super fun and varied and starts inside a cave formed by a boulder that leans against the Main Wall. We've actually climbed this route on hot days because the cliff goes into the shade early and there is a nice breeze that flows through the always shady cave.
Chimney up through the cave to a gap in the top where you can pull through (10'). Gain the top of the boulder and turnaround to notice the bolts leading up the main wall to a crack with a bulge. The crack is a little grainy but takes good gear. Pull the bulge by using the crack, face holds and stems. once above the crux step left to a small ledge where you can clip the last bolt. the rock straight up the buttress is rotten. step left past the bolt towards the center of the wall where there is good alligator skin to find pro in. If you decide to not place pro and just run it to the anchor then that's ok too since its only 5.7 here but not placing gear on the upper face will make the route pg.
