Access Issue: Highway 14 Parking
Details
PLEASE do NOT park on the slow truck ramp on the right side. Not only can it get you towed, it could easily get the crag shut down. Park only on the gravel pullouts on the cliff side of the road.
Description
Start in the offwidth under the big tree and climb the easy edges (no pro) to the sloping dirt ledge above. At this point the climb crosses lines with Sweet Surprise. Continue up and into the small gully immediately to the left of the open book. Once through the gully look right for the hand- to fist-size cracks described in Sweet Surprise. Loose rock was rampant at the time of FA, though future cleaning may reveal a pleasant route.
