Description:
Good warm up route... reallllllly fun. Need to set your own anchor. Once at the top, you can TR a few routes to climbers left, Count on Your Fingers, and No Calculators Allowed. Usually in the shade most of the day. We were down there at the end of May and definitely shade climbs are a good idea midday. Think most the route on Thin Wall are graded accurately.Descent Options:
Rappel off the 5.9 chains Count on Your Fingers. They were good shape 5/08.

Fun route!
Started from the ground directly below the crack, over the boulders to the ledge; adding a bit to the climb. Easy walk off to the right.

A fun climb
Good jams, holds on the face, and a crack that takes as much pro as you can physically carry combine to make this one fine route. Short in length, it makes for a good warm up route.
