Description

Located on western end of the Shady North side of La Cueva, this climb is a wide chimney with three bolts in the upper section. Fairly straightforward and excellent climbing on solid rock.

Protection

A few cams (something like a purple, a red, and a yellow) for the first 10m, then 4 bolts in the wider section of the shimney. The 3 anchor bolts cover a range of quality and are difficult to equalize. Someone should re-envision and replace this anchor, which is shared with Battle of the Bulges currently.
