Description:

The clean right facing dihedral down left of the North Ridge. P1- 5.8+ Go up the corner to where it ends and angle up and right below the roof to a stance around the right side of the roof and belay. Good gear for the belay (small to Hand size). P2- 5.8 The dihedral above is obvious, follow it up and around until you can traverse right to a brushy ledge. Can use the 3 pin anchor on the far right side of the ledge (belay anchors for North Ridge). Great Route with excellent gear

5 out of 5 stars Incredible!

Great route, protects very well. Good exposure on traverse at top of first pitch corner. Second pitch also good but short. Have to agree this is the best 5.8 I have climbed at Table Rock, or anywhere in Linville for that matter.
