Description

P1. Start in a very small, left-facing dihedral, then go up a nice finger crack (crux). After the finger crack, traverse to the left, then surmount a wild overhang with laybacks and high steps (good gear at the lip and the difficulty eases quickly so just go for it!). There are two bolts with chains are at the end of the first pitch.

P2. There is a 5.9 bolted second pitch, but you can also rap after the first with a 60m line.

P3. Per

go up the crack directly above the double bolt anchor. 5.9 over initial roof, then easier to top (rappel 70', 98', 95' to ground). Rack to a #4 Friend; not as nice as the first two pitches.

Location

Protection

Lots of small cams and stoppers. Nothing larger than a #1 [Camalot] is needed.
