Description

Climb the crack on the right face up to the roof in the corner. From here you have two options.

Option 1, 5.9+, 50ft total route length Break out left through the roof and finish up another short corner system. Scramble up the dirty ledge to a suitable pair of trees.

Option 2, 5.10a, 80ft total route length Dodge around the roof to the right and continue up the corner system above past a thin crux. Finish via a large vertical flake near the top. There's a good tree about 10 feet to the left to descend.

Location

From the well-trodden patch at the base of the Black Pig corner, walk climber's right around the arete down to the next right-facing corner system, which will probably be wet. There's a nice crack in the right face that leads up to the roof in the corner.

Protection

standard rack, no fixed anchors at the top of either variation

recommend you bring some webbing to leave behind to protect the trees if you plan to rappel from them
