Description Suggest change

This is a fun, moderate climb that requires varied techniques. Start on a ramp that is surprisingly hard for its low angle. Once it gets steeper you hit the crux--reach high and slot a nut first! Stem, face climb, and grovel to a stance, then follow the narrowing crack from wide hands to small hands. At the headwall it turns to fingers in a hollow block. Get a finger sized piece to start and then a hand sized piece on top of the block. From the block bust out on Mill Creek style jugs to a mantle (look for a hidden hold) and then walk around right to the anchors.

Remember: New Routes, especially ones in the desert, have loose rock, wear helmets!

Location Suggest change

This route is located on the climbers left hand side of the dihedrals around the tower from Bloody Elbows. Start in a little dry creek bed under a tree, belay right below a roof.

Protection Suggest change
