Description Suggest change

This route has a faint plaque that says 'Mad Cows' at the base. It is a lot of fun with a variety of short cruxes including fingers to (short) OW. Scramble 10ft to large ledge. Squeeze (protected by .5 or 6 C4) to smaller ledge with 4in crack that abruptly shuts down to finger crack in left facing corner. Traverse to flake on the face to the right of the corner and beware of loose block (or continue up chossy corner for 10ft to excellent hand crack). Continue up big hands flake to anchors right of a 6ft roof (or continue up excellent hand crack and traverse under roof to anchors; both ~5.10). Back up anchor with #1 and/or #2 C4.

Location Suggest change

First route left of Idaho Flake.

Protection Suggest change

All C4: (1-2 each) .4; (2-3 each) .5; (2-3 each) 1; (3-4 each) 2; (3-4 each) 3; (1-2 each) 4; (1 each, optional) 6. My memory is weak so use good judgement. The anchor is a single drilled piton and a very poor nut. HEROES: Please replace this anchor!
