Description:

This is an excellent beginner's route. On the left side of the face is a low angled slab with numerous chickenheads. Find the largest ones and belay on the grass ledge with bolts and a chain. Rappell the route.

0 out of 5 stars Ascent Note

I'd call this a classic beginner lead climb. It takes good pro and has an optional intermediate belay to practice multipitch technique.
