Description:

Good 2-pitch route up a right-facing crack system using fingers, hands and laybacks above the parking area right of Stone Groove. Go straight over the overhang at hard 5.8 or traverse around right for a more continuous 5.8.

3 out of 5 stars Climbing with Tristan

Nice roof moves. Can be done with cams up to 2 1/2, but a 4 or 5 would be nice for the crux.

4 out of 5 stars Solid moderate

I went around the roof belaying at the right end of it which kept rope-drag low. Fun climbing with good pro although I did wish for a cam larger than #3 camalot I was able to get farther in the crack with small pro.

used soloist...I thought getting in position to pull the roof was harder than actually pulling it. Just over the lip on the right side is a huge jug. 1-2" pro protects the roof crack.
