Just the Tips

Description

This left-facing dihedral of excellent varnish varies between fingers and thin-hands with some face features until about 2/3 height, then it pinches down to less than tips, but has flared pods and face features that allow for strenuous laybacking/stemming to a good lock or crimp stance at the chains.

The gear is small and fiddly up top, but the rock is very good and there's good gear a short way below. Punch it!

Location

About 1/2 way between the prow where the south face meets the west face and the Bioturbation route on the southern aspect. There's a plaque. This is listed as To Be Determined 5.11 in the new Creek guide.
