Description:
This route probably sees more traffic than any other on the rock. a chimney leads out to an overhang. pull up and jam/sidepull the offwidth above, then walk it up to better holds above. a key foot to the right of the offwidth makes the move from the overhang much less frustrating. Pitch 2 is 5.9 and it can all be done in one 90' pitch

another classic. Hard to believe this used to be rated 5.9 and was led on the 1st ascent with hexes.

Great stretch
Had a long stretch to make it from the overhang to the offwidth. Fun crack though.

Ouch!
I stuffed a #4 Friend in the crack just as it goes from horizontal to vertical...and I used it SEVERAL times... It's frequent flyer territory until you figure out the heel hook/hand jam sequence to pull the lip. Great Route...highly recommended. Maybe I'll get it clean one day.
