Description
An exciting finish that makes a classic route even more classic.
Climb the crack straight up to the big roof, then climb out the right side of the roof past a fixed pin and a bolt. At the lip of the roof, reach right to a good hold. Once you're over the roof, it's 30 feet of class 4 slab to the top.
The overhang is well protected and much easier than it looks!
