Description
This fun route lies on the east face (backside) of Chimney Rock a short ways to the right of The Flue (5.8). It sports 4 good protection bolts with supplemental protection in a series of horizontal cracks.
Not to be confused with "Flue Right" (5.10b R/X).
Fun and delicate face climbing leads to a 2 bolt rap anchor (shared with The Flue).
