Description:

Finger crack that starts at a bulge next to a tree. Shimmy the tree offwidth style and place a few good nuts from a marginal stance up high. Short crux at the bottom leads to more moderate terrain. From a great stance just under a bulge up high place a small cam (make it bomber) The next few moves are the crux. Avoid placeing gear above you at this point as you'll need all the holds for your hands.

4 out of 5 stars Fun route

Great route for the confident 9 leader wanting to break into the 10's. Easy to protect.
