Description Suggest change

One of the better beginner sport routes at Upper. Better than it appears from the ground. It's recommended to belay from the top, the ledge up there is lovely.

The first move can be 5.8 or 5.10 so if you find yourself cursing a lot check your beta. :)

Make a tricky move to get off the ground and gain a nice jug. After the second bolt make a few committing moves to a good hold before traversing right and up on a big rail. Finally, cruise up an atypical slabby schist face on excellent rounded rock to a huge sloping belay ledge with a two-bolt anchor directly below Doug the Subway Fugitive.

Location Suggest change

Start at a line of glue-in bolts about 50' left of Fresh Meat.

Protection Suggest change

Fully bolted although the short final 3rd class section up to the anchors is unprotected. Very easy terrain although a fall from this point would prove painful.
