Description:
Start: Between Matinee and Easy Overhang. There is a trail from the carriage road just past the new restroom. Climb the obvious widening crack. The offwidth section is notorious for Gunks climbers, but easy if you know how to climb cracks. ***MISSING CHOCK STONE*** THERE USE TO BE A CHOCK STONE IN THE OFFWIDTH CRACK. THE CHOKE STONE IS NO LONGER THERE MAKING THE ROUTE HARDER THEN A 5.6***** (Rap bolts & chains to the right on the ledge). The second pitch climb up to an intimidating roof, which is pulled to the top. Classic-be careful not to knock down loose rocks on the GT ledge.Descent Options:
Rap off tree on top of second pitch then rap off of bolted anchor on top of first pitch

Red Point ascent by:
off width or layback?
I think that the off width technique is easier than laying back. It's always fun with a #5 above your head.

Went up P1 as an offwidth
Rather than laying back. One hard move, then it's over.
