Description
This climb is on the south end of the east face of the west wall of Steve Canyon. It is in the shade most of the day. Enter the canyon from the south and look left to a "niche" with a nice flat belay trapped up against the rock on the left, about 30 feet past the hanging flake of Candelabra.
Climb a slightly flaring crack up to a bulge, Pull through the bulge to a shelf, then transition into the left (wide) crack which will take you up to the right end of a terrace. Belay from cracks in and under boulders.
