Description:
Easy climbing to a ledge, turn a small overhang, and then climb the obvious crack system on the left side of the face. The technique is up to you, but you can layback or handjam the perfect crack through overhangs to the mid-route ledge. Then up to the two bolt anchor (or top if you are so inclined).

Great warmup!
Fun jamming and laybacking up a series of cracks. Beautiful view at the top, too!
The bolts (many are now just black nubs) on this route are suicide AND not needed.
