| To get to the belay, approach up a gully on the right side of the the main rock and traverse carefully across slabs to the base of the climb. This is easy if no snow on the slabs. A few cams will make the belay more comfortable.
The view from the horn halfway up is worth it! |

| Great route, great moves! Definitely worth the slab scramble. Thanks for putting these up! |

| Great moves, but you clip one bolt before starting, then 2 more and then the anchors... the bolts are 5' apart. So the meat of the climbing is 10-15 feet. Great fun, but over quickly. If it were not for the deadly landing (sloper ledge to a 60' drop), it would be a boulder problem. As is, it's better off, but wish it was longer. |

| There is a huge jug in the center. When you grab it, your feet will be dangling in space. |
