Description:
This is on the far right of Hogsback. Look for the lone tree. Some sketchy 4th class to get to the tree. You should see left facing corner about 15-20 feet to right of tree. Follow this up past two bushes and you will come to a slight ledge to belay. Thin stuff for the anchor. Follow this up some slightly overhanging blocks (easy)to the top.

Ascent Note
5.5? wow, sketchy in some areas, more 5.6 like because of no hands positions and moves. I did the 5.6 end for the climb. not a hard climb but definitely has some hairy spots for a 5.5 climb. Then again I'm not a fan of slabbly friction climbing.
