Mermaid Buttress

This Buttress is North Facing but low angle enough to receive some late morning sun into the fall. In the summer it surely bakes and in the winter it gets very little sun. It can, however, be relatively protected from a S/SW wind.

It's also worth noting, climbing this buttress puts you within a very short walk of Physical Graffiti, and may be a fun alternative to the regular approach to Riding Hood wall.
