Description
We spotted this after doing Ham & cheese and so glad we climbed it.
Sure it's been climbed before, just don't know the name/history.
Could it be "The Number," 5.7, put up in 1971?
Superb 5.6 trad climb.
Needs some more traffic to clean it up. Great, however.
Lieback, jam, stem, toe jamming - it has the classic elements of a trad climb.
Start at the plush belay ledge which also serves Ham & Cheese.
P1: 38M to bush belay
P2: 30M to bolted belay of Ham & cheese
NOTE: we ran P1 & P2 together with 70M rope.
P3: 35M to tree belay. Bit grungy, needs some clean-up.
With a 70M rope, you can do 3 raps to the base (via Ham & Cheese rap stations).
Location
Located right of "This aint Kosher," and left of "Ham & Cheese.
Protection
Standard trad rack:
(1) set of nuts to #7 chock
(1-2) sets of cams to 3"
