Description
Fun sport climbing on good (by Pinnacles standards) quality rock. The pump is more likely to get you than the diffuculty of the moves. Difficulty and steepness eases back up high.
Location
Young's guide (brown cover) describes the approach well. Deviating from these instructions is risky and will most likely involve epic bush whacking. "Get a Grip" is pretty far out there but combine it with a few routes on the hand (neighboring formation) for a fun trip. Note: We climbed a route adjacent to Get a Grip called Pinch Grip (5.10aR) and found the upper part to be more like R/X on very bad rock.
