Description

Fun moves on slab with flake holds.

Up to the right side the shallow scoop in the upper half of the face, then roughly straight to the top.

Start is tricky if not tall. If having trouble getting through it, worth getting an "aid" boost from your partner to enjoy the moves above.

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).

Location

About twenty feet right from the left end of the Albion slab, below the right side of a shallow scoop in the upper half of the face. See the routes overview photo for Albion sector.

Protection

Top-Roping: see directions for top anchor for Albion area.

Protection for trad Leading is unknown and likely inadequate.
