Description
Stem up the short corner under the roof. Reach left to place a .1 cam to protect the first moves, then commit left. Use a combination of face holds and underclings to move out the roof and pull into the upper corner, then jam, stem, and lieback your way up to the mossy ledge.
Anchor is currently some cord around a large tree with quicklinks, but I might add bolts later. Route is clean enough to climb, but I also left a brush at the base since there's still a bit of work that could be done.
The route protects well, but the gear can be a little finicky since the cracks sometimes flare inward and outward in different places, so maybe not the best route if you're a budding 5.8 leader.
