Description
Worth doing if just for the name alone, this climbs an obvious crack midway between Hot Buttered Elves and Backdoor Santa. Another moderate to do when Atlantis is too cold or crowded.
There's no fixed anchor at the top, so belay at the cracks just below the summit cap. Then scramble to the north (climber's left) into a notch, under some boulders (past/under the topout for Hot Buttered Elves) and down a sort of dirty boulder-filled ramp to a short downclimb leading to the notch off the north face of the rock. From there, it's an easy descent back to the base.
