Description
This is a fun and sustained short route. Pump your way up through the right leaning finger sized crack. There are a variety of ring locks, bone locks, side pulls and chockstones in the crack. Work right at the end of the crack for an easier finish or head straight up for the direct finish with a gaston/ sloper.
Location
Head past the mini-cliffs toward the main wall. The route is the right-most crack on the main wall at Lookout Mountain.
Protection
For top roping, anchor at the top with trees, long anchor line needed. Closer to the edge of the cliff, near the cliff edge shrubbery, is a short hand sized crack and there is a large natural rock feature that can be slung with anchor line or webbing.
For leading, offset nuts and .3 to #1 cams.
