Description
This climb is located in a chasm behind the main wall. Walk around Indian Creek Crack and make your way into the corridor. The corridor is about 3 feet wide and its sort of a chimney climb. The route is like a mini firewater chimney climb with a few bolts and tops out where the other routes on the main wall are. Start the climb stemming up to the first bolt. There is a short crack to the left that we got gear into to make it to the next bolt. The 2nd bolt has a partner for some reason 2 feet parallel (we only clipped one). There is another bolt 15 feet up that you can clip from a ledge with a quick link on it. We used this as a directional and belayed from the top rock behind the corridor. Fun different route.
