Description
From the ground, for the grade, this is a very intimidating route. If your leading limit is 5.7 then you may want to follow this one first.
Well right of Dicey at Best find a deep dark dihedral with big roofs above.
Climb up relatively easy ground to a stance below the first roof. Shorter people will be forced to stretch for good holds above.
Climb up to a ledge above the second roof (sneak left to keep the grade moderate) and belay.
Continue up a wider crack to the top of the wall. Rap the route with two ropes or find some other way down.
