Description

This is the dihedral left of Birthday Boy. The route starts out with normal dihedral cracks for a few feet and then about 10 feet of a chimney which is about a body width wide and deep. The chimney spits you out and you pull up onto a small ledge about half way up the route. Watch out for the Bull Nettle plant that will irritate your skin if you come into contact. The hard stuff is over and you can cruise up to the top placing gear as you feel the need. No anchors, but plenty of gear placements for a trad anchor.

Location

This is in the corner left of Birthday Boy and High Anxiety on Lower Mt Scott.

Protection

The bottom half will take some big pro (3-5") if you want to place it. Right off the deck is a 4" placement as you stem up into the chimney. A normal rack of up to 3" will get you up very easily.
