coming up P3

Stream after crossing the creek - you want to enter here and follow this uphill to the cliff base

Pitch 3<br>
Gently overhanging face climbing goodness peppered with horizontals for gear. Exposure is amazing on this pitch <br>

View from belay on pitch 3

Start of P3...good quality rock right off of the belay turns somewhat loose above...

The final rap station before the ground. Just to the right of where P1 goes.

Base of climb (start on crack on left side)

On P2,after following the off-width up and right, traverse right along the 3 horizonal finger cracks.

Teejay grinnin like a possum eating a sweet tater.

Crossing the creek early in the morning after rainfall in the previous days

Start of Pitch 2

Working the 2nd pitch

Amazing southern sunset from the top of the route. would recommend climbing the route in the afternoon so you can watch the sunset from the top. it's nothing compared to the overlook at sunset, this may be one of the best places to watch the sunset in chattanooga. maybe the brow on signal would be just as good

Double rope rappel (we used a 60 and a 70) gets you from the top of P3 to the top of P1 with plenty to spare.
