Description:

Located about 25' right of Buissonier on the Southeast corner, it's an excercise in friction. You'll get crimpers only where you need them on the thin sections with a big 'ol juggy section in the middle. Fun!

3 out of 5 stars Woolsey woo

Fun face climbing with a jugging and balancy middle section that will make you think. Running it out to the top along the hump, there is anchors to be had, but it puts your second in a long pendulium. Better to go straight back to a small alcove to belay from.

4 out of 5 stars superfun!

loved this. took me two tries. my only beef was trying to reach the clip after the huge knob. if you're short, you have to clip, downclimb, and then head back up a different way.

the rap down is so WEIRD. i don't like it.
