Something Spooky

Something Spooky follows the finger crack way to the left of Officer 270s Hairy Bush. Follow the thin crack up to the WIDE horizontal crack, from there gain good jugs to mantle onto and then finish on the short slab by section. The ledge above the horizontal crack definitely has some bad juju to it. Upon gaining the ledge on the FA all steam I had was lost and some bad vibrations were sensed.

Park at Pirates Landing (first parking from the top of Mt Scott) and walk downhill 30-50’, turn left to the east and scramble down the talus to a grassy slope. Head east to where the boulders run in a downhill edge and follow SSE. After a few ledges downhill look east toward the south bankline of Lake Lawtonka and a bald large dome with large huecos facing skyward and a couple cedar trees will mark the topout of The Crucible which has climbing faces pointing south and east.  To see the climbing faces you’ll have to pass the crag heading east. Once you’ve found the dome with huecos on top the easiest scramble is south for 10-15 yards and then turn  left and corkscrew down into The Crucible’s south face. Something Spooky and Officer 270s Hairy Bush can be found on the East face of the crucible

Finger sized cams. A BD #5 camalot protects the wide horizontal crack.
