Description
This is a classic, difficult Mickey's Beach climb. Climb just right of Mickey's Beach Arete (5.13b), up the leftmost bolt line on the side of the rock facing the ocean.
This route has a little of everything. Start with a crimpy 5.11+ boulder problem, climb an easy flake, have fun with a few underclings, enjoy a few tiny crimps, and then stick big moves onto slopers until a fun finishing move. The route stays on you from bolt 4 to the top, with a crux around bolts 5-6 where footwork is key.
Climbing to the 1st bolt starts with a step across a gap immediately exposing you to a large fall onto jagged rocks if not stick clipped.
