Description:

This route is not shown in Marty Karabin's book, but it is in his "white" pamphlet. It is the route immediately to the right of "Grasping for Straws". This is a really fun climb with good variation. It goes from a thin face start thru a slightly broken area to a small inset ledge, then over a pocketed bulge to the top.

I agree with "reachy at top"; the middle of the route is breezy and fun. Great route

5 out of 5 stars Ascent Note

An awesome route that really seems out of place compared to the other so-so climbs on this fin. Solid holds most of the way if you can work out the puzzle.
