Description:

Around the corner left of the Chockstone area. Begin right of a tree in a wide (read: OW) crack with a chockstone at the bottom. Employ the chickenwing, armbar, grunting, moaning to the top of the crack. Move right, up a corner and up a cleft to a nice belay ledge where you can walk-off.

3 out of 5 stars Akward

I'm not a real wide crack guy so this was a bit akward. Not hard and I started the wrong side in which was part of the problem. The move to the horn was cool. Overall a worthwhile route. Guidebook gives it a 5.7 and I would agree with that.
