Description
Very interesting lower half (on Top-Rope).
Start at right end of the horizontal section of the low roof. Diagonal up on right-facing flakes, then straight to the top.
warning: The rock on and around this route has not been climbed much yet, and much of the rock is still breakable and loose -- so the belayer and other people should stand far away from underneath the climber.
. . . (Lots of vegetation on this rock as of 2015. Be prepared when climbing to navigate around protruding trees and branches, and dealing with holds slippery with grass, lichen, moss, dirt).
