Description Suggest change

Long crack climb over the ocean. Can only be accessed at low tide by hopping along rocks, or by rappelling in, but there is a nice belay ledge above the waterline.

This isn't a 5.10c, we felt that it was easier than a lot of 5.9's at main face. The hollow flakes in the middle of the climb were inspected and cleaned up with a crowbar (August 1st, 2019); the larger flakes could not be removed and seemed well attached, though one should still climb carefully through this section.

Climb an arching crack to a flake system below the roof. Climb past the flakes with pro in adjacent cracks then face climb up to a wide crack (#4 camalot nice here). This crack leads to a grassy ledge with a bolted anchor.

Top out by scrambling up 20 feet right of the bolted anchor, or rappel back down to the ledge

Protection Suggest change

Standard rack to #4 camalot, very well protected. Few extra finger-hand sized cams could be nice because it's long. Bolted rappel anchor shared with Mid Atlantic and Whaleback (28m rappel)
