Description:
A new route directly below the tree/chain belay at the start of the super classic Sasquatch. Start in a easy slab corner about 15' above the slippery fallen tree you hike over when heading toward Industrial Wall. This is below the big tree and to the left about 10'. 5.6 gets you to a stance, clip two fixed pitons through moderate friction, then climb a sloping corner to the anchor below Sasquatch. FINALLY, you don't have to wait for people to quit top-roping the original first pitch of Pentapitch to get to Nubbins Direct, Sasquatch, and Nubbins to Nowhere. Clean climbing, no need to rumble through bushes. It's possible to lead through this to the top of Sasquatch for a long lead. F.A. tda solo 07-26-03
