Description

The longest route at the crag weaves its way through the center of the cliff in two pitches, following the path of least resistance through the nice slab right of the headwall.

P1 Shares the first four bolts with The Race is On/Baby on Board. Start up the chunky right facing corner on nice jugs and then cut hard right after the 4th bolt and do an exciting traverse across a foot rail while using small crimps for your hands (crux, 5.9), then continue trending right and slightly up to a belay ledge. 5.9, 55', 6 bolts

P2 Climb up the face above with really fun movement past three bolts (crux, 10-), traversing right after the third bolt to some easier rock leading up to the base of a tips/fingers corner crack. Plug some gear and cruise up the corner, then continue on to the slab above, which gets lower angle and easier as you reach the anchors. 5.10-, 90', 4 bolts + gear

Location

Right in the middle of the cliff, the right facing corner that the route starts on is an obvious landmark. This right facing corner is the start of several routes.
