Description
The first lead route to broach the right-side crag on Tier 2. Interesting and thuggy climbing for its entire length. Some friable rock and still in primeval (i.e. somewhat dirty) condition. Stem up right of the main crack to the roof. Swing left around the corner of the overhang and follow the dihedral, using it and the crack 4' left, to reach the final overhang. Traverse left 5' to get around this, and take the handcrack along its left side to reach the top.
Location
After ascending any route on Tier 1, head up and right to the 50' high, steep wall with a large left-facing corner and buttress (sporting a large triangular boulder perched on a ledge 20' up) delineating its right end. This route climbs up to the underside of the large overhang 12' up, then ascends the dihedral to its left.
Protection
A #6 Camalot protects the crux finish near the bottom, getting around the initial overhang. One might be able to forego that mega-cam, or possibly settle for a tipped-out #5, but it certainly eases the risk to have that #6. Bring a full set of cams, and double from .75 to 3".
