Keeping climbing areas open and conserving the climbing environment

Description 

Good little climb that is often overlooked. Almost immediately you feel in it. A must for thin face lovers!

Climb up into the small alcove that has a crack running out of it to the right. Follow the crack right until it ends and climb up the gripping face to a small stance and gear. Continue up and left to a stance below an overhang. Climb up any way you wish (try straight up for extra fun). Traverse right to the sappy pine belay.

Location 

On the approach trail to Casa Emilio (yellow trail) you will see a clean face with a crack on your left just before the trail goes up and right.

Protection 

Mostly small to mid-size stuff. Standard rack is plenty.
