The Mossiah

A quality and well-protected 2-pitch crack climb. The first pitch especially is quite good. Might be a bit stout.The climb starts at the same spot as the 4th class scramble to Hard Times, but climbs the initial corner of Red Zinger to a big cedar and some ledges. Break with Red Zinger to continue up the fingercrack up the left wall of a right-facing corner to a big belay ledge (shared with Falconer). Watch for loose flakes as you gain the ledge. Gear belay under the second pitch in the center of the ledge. 5.10b 70'For the second pitch, just go straight up. Start in a shallow right-facing corner with an off-fingers/tight hands slot about 10' up and continue up a few right-facing corners, aiming for the obvious left-facing corner 20' right of a striking handcrack splitter - the second pitch of Falconer. Up the left-facing corner and continue up to the tree ledge. 5.10a 140'One rappel to the ground with two 60m ropes. Also, one can tunnel through the trees to the third pitch of Falconer to wrap up the day. 

Just left of the right-rising ramp of the 4th class start Hard Times at a large right-facing corner system that cuts the cliff. A bit left and slightly uphill of where the approach trail meets the cliff at the base of Touch of Class.
