Description:

This starts in the pit under the triangular roof. There is a large downward knob, this is the satrt hold. first moves puts your other hand about 5 feet up into a sharp horizontal crack. continue up from there, grit your teeth for the pain to come... these holds are sharp! virtually impossible if you are less than 5'-9" tall

Descent Options:

Rap or hike around

3 out of 5 stars Strenuous fun...

Note that this route is a trad lead and takes pro to 2" if you lead it. Getting past the long reach is the crux, and pro doesn't come exactly where you want it. You should be confident at the grade. The anchor only has two bolts and no chain, so bring some webbing.
