Description
Start with a (SDS) under a bulging wall right next to a mini cliff drop off. Take caution on the opening moves!!
Move out from a crack system while trending right to a steep bulging face with a few small key crimps. While working to gain solid balanced via technical foot placements, continue crimping and slapping to the top of the block. Then walk off.
Just for the record I love this problem!! I think if you are in the area you should give it a go!!!

Location
Located on the in the center on the west side of the main rock out-crop of Gilligan's Island. To get there you park in the 2nd parking lot on the west side of the park. Then take the Bluebird Meadow Trail (staying west) and head out to Gilligan's Island.
Once you reach the Island and the trail makes its loop split continue up towards the big main out-crop trending westward. You will pass the wall that has "The Captain" on your left.
Wind your way up to level ground making sure to stay on the left (west) side of the larger out-cropping.
The line is about 20-30 feet left (west) of the cave called "Island Hut." The line will come into your line of sight if you are looking out left. Walk around to your left and you will see a mini cliff/drop off. The line starts sitting down just right of the drop off. Enjoy!!
