Description An OK route but it suffers the same problem as Wishbone - a lack of consistency.
Start as for Wishbone but stay right and pull through the roof (crux) to a wide crack. Easier climbing leads to the top.
Location Same as Wishbone
Protection The paranoid can use a #4 camalot to sew up the crux.

| Brownell Bergen was also on the first ascent in 1964. Just for the record. |

| used the #5 camalot, was happy to have it. large hexes could have been OK too, especially if you dump the #4 at the crux. |

| The chockstone that helped everyone pull the crux is gone. Probably 5.9+ now. |
