This is a fine trad line on the far left side of the east face of the Dakota Hogback formation. The rock is relatively low angle and generally better than it looks, but nevertheless, watch out for loose rock and be careful yarding on unsupported rock features. The pro is adequate, but it is at times not obvious how to get the best out of your placements, so some experience placing gear helps. There is no bolted anchor, so either make a trad toprope anchor (one option uses a BD #0.2, 1, and 2), and then have the last person walk off or make a trad anchor at the top of the formation, belay your partner up, and walk off (2nd Class). Multiple options exist for an anchor at the top of the formation, but if you use a tree, be sure to back it up as they are on the small side and their roots are exposed.

It is on the climber’s far left side of the east face of the Dakota Hogback formation.

A set of nuts and cams from BD #0.2-2. Build your own anchor to toprope or belay your partner up and walk off (2nd Class). No bolted anchor exists.
