Description

Interesting moves on holds more positive than expected. Too bad it's not sustained longer.

Start on the face between obvious L-facing inside crack ("Big Corner") and vertical crack with tree about 15ft up ("Left Tree Crack"). Straight up to slopy terrace. Ramp up past L side of higher tree, then diagonal up Right under high bulge.

Varation Start: Start a few feet farther right. Up the vertical crack to the tree, and grab the rock perched to continue up to slopy terrace, then L on terrace to rejoin main route.

warning: The rock on and near this route has not been climbed much yet, and some of the rock is still breakable and loose -- so the belayer and other people should stand far away from underneath the climber or someone setting up top anchor.

. . . (Lots of vegetation on this rock as of 2018. Be prepared when climbing to navigate around protruding trees and branches, and dealing with holds slippery with grass, lichen, moss, dirt).
