Description
This has straightforward climbing with the crux near the 3rd bolt when moving through the prow's face. Watch out for the guano near the crux (it may alter the route).
Location
This is the leftmost route on the prow formation. It starts just a few feet away from Ol' St. Joe. Lower / rap with rope drag, or walk-off to the left and follow a trail back to the stream.
Protection
5 bolts leading to a pair of anchor-bolts (shared with Ol' St. Joe). The anchor bolts are on the horizontal surface atop the formation, and they create significant rope drag.
(It is PG-13 only because the first bolt is way off the deck.)
