Description A good climb in a good corner. Perhaps one of the most accessible routes in the canyon. But on bust weekends, watch out for tourists in the area. Enjoy good jams on good rock on the way back to the top.
Location To access this route, walk down from the visitor's center and parking lot to the small overlook with handrails. Go East 10 meters to a single tree and rap down into the canyon (80'). The right-facing corner is the climb.
Protection A standard light rack. A 50 meter rope might be the best to keep your stuff dry when rapping, as you are just above the water, bat watch out for the ends!

| The best exit is Scrape with Death, the crack left of the tree(looking at the river), just keep the rope out of the right crack when belaying or it will get stuck if the climber falls. |

| I've climbed next to B-25. I've added my photo as I think it helps to see the route described here. I'll admit to being new to Mountain Project, and hope this is helpful. |

| FYI, this is an old school 5.9 - a flaring and somewhat polished crack with cruxy and committing moves right off the deck above a ledge. You'll want to be a solid 5.9 leader with good crack skills to tackle this one. |
