Description Suggest change

P1: climb a rather technical, thin crack to a good stance (rest) below the overhangs. From this stance The Link goes right. Instead, move up and left to a good horizontal and then follow the line of weakness back to the right. A few interesting moves gets you up to a small ledge. From here make some delicate moves (layback?) up to a large horn and the thin finish.

I seem to remember mantling up to the small ledge and finding this be rather 'balancy' and delicate. Fun route...def worth your time.

Location Suggest change

Start about 10-15 ft left of Mississippi Buttress Direct and about 20-25 ft right of the obvious Mississippi Chimney

Protection Suggest change

standard trad rack, long runners helpful for the zig-zag section in the middle if not using double-ropes.
