Description 

Start by surmounting the small block at the base of the route, then, up a cram leading to a slightly right slanty crack. At the top of the crack, head left up lower angle face/arete to bolted anchor at junction with the steeper, tall wall to the left. Good stance at the anchor.

Loose rock and poor protection: take care!

Location 

Directly behind the Pinnacle. Starts off a small block to the right of a thin crack/seam (and the route Mock Hospitality). Rappel from fixed anchor atop route.

Protection 

Standard rack to include small cams and stoppers. No fixed lead gear. Fixed anchor.
