Description

This is a little toprope problem that turns out to be fun. Natural protection opportunities are scant, so in keeping with the posted desires for the crag, it's a top rope. Some might consider this a variation of

Honey Pot

, but it climbs quite differently.

About 20-25 feet left of

Honey Pot

, there are some wavy water streaks. The easiest start has you pulling on a wedged block (hopefully it will not move). Pull aboard and grope your way upward. Each time when you need a good hold, one seems to appear. Angle gradually towards the anchors of

Honey Pot

. Smile.

Apparently, this has now been bolted by two different lines. Perhaps, think of this as a link-up retrospectively. At the time, there was a sentiment expressed that the crag should not get bolted. We respected that.

Location

This starts about 20-25 feet left of

Honey Pot

above some bushes on some wavy water streaks.

Protection

Originally, one would toprope off of

Honey Pot's

anchor. You may be able to get a direction or two, but the swing doesn't seem too bad.

Now you may be able to clip some bolts of

The Floating Air Biscuit

and/or

Joint Therapy

. It is not the same line as either.
