Description:

Great face climbing on an unlikely line. Begin as for Standard Route/Toe Crack's right angling left facing flake.

Continue wandering upwards passing fixed gear along the way to anchors below the end of the Thin Air traverse.

Descent Options:

A double rope rap to the ground or continue up as desired.

Edging Pleasure

Excellent edging, past a roof and up a nice face, a harder version of Hotter than Hell but with more breaks. Good gear is available where it's needed.
