Description:

Great moves at the start and finish. Follow the slightly overhanging fingercrack in the corner to the ledge, continue up strange slopey, hard to protect face. The best finish is to traverse right to the finger crack.

Descent Options:

walkaround

4 out of 5 stars 5.9+ MA

Certainly gets the MA designation. Great powerful climb, the chockstone at the top of the inside corner finger crack is a bit sketchy, tread lightly...
