Great linville adventure climbing with mostly good rock, and some spots of lichen. Mandatory 20-30’ runouts, not unlike other NC adventure routes. Completed ground up in 2 days. 5/13/2022, 6/4/2023

P2. Straight up and staying to the right of the false mummy. Cross a vertical moss jungle. After this clip a bolt and one last exciting roof pull deposits you at a stance on the false mummy. Belay at one bolt and gear. 28 meters.

5.8+

P3. Traverse right 20’ then head up a funky dihedral with a steep move to get established. Once over the initial 30’ things open up nicely. Belay at a large mossy ledge with bolts. A better protected pitch for the route, with some creativity. 25meters

5.8+

P4. Climb to the right 20’ and then up aiming for the hanging block. The face slabs into vertical, to the right of the large broken crack systems. Climb the amazing vertical face with horizontals, to the left of the hanging block. Pitch ends at a 10” pine tree. 5.8
