Description
An aesthetic arête that gets steeper and steeper the higher you get. Begin by climbing up good holds on a less than vertical arête to a small ledge. After the ledge, the angle gets much steeper and goes overhanging with a mix of big jugs, to desperate pinches. Even though the first half (low 5.10) is much easier than the second, it still does not lack in aesthetic appeal and quality of climbing. The first half of the route can be climbed to the anchors of River View Crack making for a good, but short .10b sport route.
