Description:

A steep, fairly long water chute is the basis for this climb; steep near the end especially for the grade; avoid the line at the beginning, and just hike up the slabs on the left; deceptively long - 60m+ from the standard belay stance.

Descent Options:

Walk across to top to rap slings (if not removed) on chock boulder near Mama Woosley, or continue down via chimney downclimb near Buissonier (see Descent Option for that).

I wish the hand crack just above the 1st belay spot was 50' longer!! Descent was tricky - walk to the North end of the Blob and rap off the arch.
