Description 

Natural line climber's right of Flakey & Garden Party - has a small tree in the flaring start crack. Flaring finger locks & thin feet (RP's), grab a jug on the lower seam & pull into a perfect hand crack (is more vertical than it looks from the ground.) Exit the handcrack and move up a slab at .8+. It's a fun mix of climbing for 30M.


Protection 

RPs, nuts/wires to hang on 3 bolt studs (hangers are removed), handsized cams for the handcrack. Tree on top - webbing & rap rings were there 01/06 and in good condition, 30M back to the ground. Or, continue up easy & walk off.
