Description:

I'll add more. Around to the left from Kim area. Climbs 2 pitches. P1 is a cool handcrack out a little overhang. P2 is a wild squeeze. Tough for the grade - but ultra fun.

4 out of 5 stars Skull is a Classic

Awesome route... as long as you like smooth dihedral crack climbing. Watch out for lots of bird poo near belay. No bolts at belay, only webbing wrapped around a horn. Continue up through the crack in the roof for a good challenge.

I loved this route. Great variation, from hands, to fingers, to fists, to offwidth, to chimney, and even a poop-covered perch!! The beginning I thought was easy because I hand jam well, but I had a hard time getting into the second overhang. After attempting tight fists over my head, I finally used an arm bar and crimp on the wall to wiggle my way up into the chimney....
