Description 

An adventerous pitch! About 2/3 the way down the right wall look for a very distinct set of geometric roofs. The Dr. climbs up the wide scrappy dihedral below these. After navigating the blocks, work your way into the large flare. Chimmney up this feature and prepare to do battle with awkward tips! Move to the roof and easily turn on the right side. Enjoy a near perfect section of splitter fingers to the top. May feel a bit stiff for the grade.

Location 

Aprrox 20 feet right of BFAM.

Protection 

A little bit of everything bulking up on small-medium TCUs, small-medium wires.
