Description:

6 pitches, though 3&4 are easy to string together. 6th pitch (last) goes wandering off line to left at 5.7 or go straight up through 5.9 roof crux with loose top out (fun! really!). Top out for walk off is a sketchy traverse across choss to trees so make sure your last anchor is bomb proof - the guidebook warns you about it and this would be a good time to listen. (There's beta on the last station in the "climbed by" description.)

4 out of 5 stars Ascent Note

BETA ALERT: the beta on the last station. Take a 6m to 7m anchor cord. Save a .75 camalot + pinky tricam + 00 metolius cam. You'll probably need a .5m quickdraw for the .75. The .75 is pretty obvious up at the top in a slot that flares open upwards. The pinky goes down and to the left of it in a constriction that opens up both above and below. The 00 goes low down on the left wall.
