Description:

Bushwack the easy vegetated slab to the block/roof. Move right around the block, then treverse back left awkwardly over the block. Finish straight up/right. cool once you are past the start. The upper part may feel scary the first time. Bring a few slings for the last bolts on the slab. There is a bolt on the boulder for the belayer. Use it, or a fall will cause you to get dragged into the hole.
