Description Located on 'The Chicken Wall' of the 'Clock Tower', this is just right of "Chicken Hawk". This is the longest route on the wall and gives a couple cruxes. Watch out for the bat shit/piss before pulling the roof at the top. A key hold can be found for reaching the anchors by reaching around the right arete to a large jug. It is a decent route (a little dirty) with many different types of moves. 2 stars.
Protection 7 bolts - 2 bolt anchor.

| I'm no Sharma, but 5.9 is closer to reality. |

| A decent route -- be careful clipping the second bolt! I "barn-doored" off the wall while trying to get in a better position to the right of this bolt to clip it --- I was flipped over head-first because of the rope running under my leg and came within 1 foot of hitting my head on the ground...close call!! The next day I went and bought a helmet! |

| 5.9??? Oh my god, Leo??? This is the one route at the cliff that I thought was hard at its grade and my partner agreed. I thought 11a. Would be a decent route if it were not for the guano up high- a nasty lot of it when wet too- where are my arm-condums (TM)??? |
