MapDescription
A very high quality second pitch on par with Potter Mountain Cliff, with great views.P1: Either climb P1 of Bear Necessities (5.9, mixed sport/trad) or climb up and left through dirty ledges to a j-shaped crack. Up the crack (5.9 G) to a slab (5.7 R) to a stance below a wall that looks like it belongs on Potter Mountain Cliff. (There is a fixed anchor on a tree up and left about 30 ft but it makes more sense to belay at the base of the bolt line of the second pitch by placing a cam or two and using the bolt).P2: Spectacular! Follow the bolts through incredible climbing on small, incut edges. Very similar to routes above the Smile Ledge on Potter. Belay at a 2-bolt anchor on a comfortable ledge.
