Description
Think half of JTree's Gunsmoke, this is a high quality, long traverse that stays dry in a downpour (mostly).
LEFT START/END: Large shelf about waist level, before the wall gets too bushy and after it begins to incline along the hill.
RIGHT START/END: Inside the obvious chimney feature, left of where the wall gets too slabby to be worthwhile climbing.
There are lots of variations on better and worse holds, including some vertical boulders which can top out, or circle back into the traverse. I think the best value is from left to right, and back again to rest in the chimney and continue lapping. This goes at what feels like 5.11? Who knows.
I know this used to be climbed more often back in the 70's, hopefully it can see some traffic now. Named for fun, not historically. Feel free to update with an original name if there ever was one.
