Description
Strenuous, undercling, slab climbing. This is a unique route that looks easier than it is.
Start on good holds next to a dead tree. Pull over the starting bulge and scramble up low angle slab to the first bolt. Follow the maze of downward facing holds up the slightly off-vertical slab.
Well bolted and good fun although it looks like a hold or two has broken off and a few more could be poised to pop. Belayer be warned.
