Description
This is the obvious Right facing corner on the south end of the west side of Rabbit Rock. It is a rather interesting mountaineering type of route that encourages creativity.
P1: Climb the corner left of redtail (11a) cross redtail short of the top of the corner to the large ledge. Belay at the base of the main corner.
P2: Follow the corner (slightly dirty and continue straight up in or out of the crack as you please. At the end of the crack continue just right of the large roof(chimney) until you are comfortable to scramble on.

Location
Approach:
On the south end of rabbit rock this route starts just to the left of popular redtail (5.11) in a wide right facing corner. To get there follow the trail between parking lot rock and morning glory spire the south end of rabbit rock should be just ahead follow a path up a short slab to the base of the route.
Descent:
Walk off to the north end of the rock or rappel from anchors near north end. We found some on NE side and came up a few feet short with a 60m rope.
