Description
We used to say that all new climbers at fountain needed to squirm up the dust chute. This thing is an adventure for sure! Climb the obvious corner squeeze while clipping bolts along the way.
Jim Thurmond and Joe Riedhead originally tried to climb this in the 2000's. They bailed after finding no trad gear and stepping on a copperhead snake while climbing
