Description
Slippery feet and good locks.... Start up the steep, finger crack using some polished feet outside of the crack.... A tricky crux section of locking and perhaps a layback move will get your foot on the "horn" feature and an OK rest.... One more crux guards the top out involving a high, right foot, some power, and grace....
A very important climb for me....Probably the first "hard crack" I climbed, and it is still teaching me more than 10 years later...Climb it!
Location
The horn is just right of the easy to identify Obscene Phone Call (5.8).... Nice finger crack up a smooth vertical wall....
Protection
Nuts and cams to #0.75 Camalot (green).... Fingers to small cams....
Top-rope may be set by slinging a boulder at the top and equalizing off of a small tree or two...
