Description 

100' right of Zendance, starts in a right-angling crack system. Awkward climbing off the ground leads to an easy middle section to a nice left-angling hand crack. Follow the nice crack to a 2-bolt anchor; 5.8. You can toprope this with a 50m rope or climb the second pitch, a low-angle finger and hand crack (5.4) to a large pine tree, and belay or walk off to the right.

Protection 

Medium to large stoppers and .5-2" cams.
