Description If you are in the area, this route is worth doing, if not, it's probably not worth the walk. Climb the left leaning broken crack system past some bulges and horizontals to the top. The top sections can be a bit dirty. Some of the moves can be a bit pumpy if you don't see the sequence.
Location From the main Bridge Area, walk downstream past the Gemini Area and The Roc. This route is located just to the right of a large right facing corner.
Protection Excellent pro, standard New River Gorge rack. Slings on tree at top.

| This is one of my favorites at Bridge - worth the short walk out there if finger/hand cracks on impeccable rock are your thing. |

| Agree with Jon--great route that is consistently steep and not easy to read. Would love it if they add a bolted anchor, but the huge tree at the top is bomb. |
