All 5 feet of her!
The 'easy' way to pull the crux
This photo was taken on Decadence Day.<br> <br> An end o' season thing we used to do. Where everyone would bring TON's of food, grills, Beer & Wine by the case, chairs shit you name it....<br> <br> Then we consumed & Climbed the day away<br> <br> <br> Check out them tights!
As noted in another photo, a BD C4 #2 provides solid protection for the low crux. Heads up... the flake at lower right rocks just enough to cause concern. I wouldn't belay under it.

Another beta photo? Sure!

Swillbillies to Gargantua. Routes to right of Freaky Face as you round the corner toward Pacific Ocean Wall to the east. <br> <br> Uberschmitt can share the start with Sepsen Wall (per Knower) or Tarantula (per S/M). Looks like you could start between them, too.
Roof sequence. The missing bit is the high step over the lip. I go up with my right foot, but I've seen taller folks go up with the left!<br> <br> - Photos by Brett Verhoef
