Description

This is a fun and interesting route just right of "

The Black Tube

" which goes up the obvious "rib" near the center of the crag. I did this route before the new guidebook came out, so I had no idea what its rating was before climbing it. It's got three 5.10 cruxes (.10a, .10b and .10c) on the rib proper (bottom half of the route) and a final 5.10c crux near the top, at the bulge just above the ledge. It has lots of pegmatite crystal crimping and tiny nubbins for your feet. A double rope rappel from a bolted anchor or a scramble to the top will get you back on solid ground.

Protection

12 quickdraws with a 3 bolt anchor.
