Description

Short offwidth splitter in "the cove." This is route "B" in the Kelley book.

A few feet of 5s off the ground leads to a long section of 6s before it widens even more. Great offwidth to learn on, but a heady lead without some very big gear.

If leading with a single big bro #4 as your bigger piece, I would recommend three 6s: leave a bomber one mid way up, then walk a pair of tipped 6s up to your personal threshold of terror, which will probably leave at least 12 feet of climbing for your single bro (make it bomber). I'm assuming a single 7 and a pair of 6s would sew it up.

Location

On the corner of the beach between the north and east faces.

Protection

A single 5, a set of 6s, and something bigger.
