Description 

Climb a low 5th class chimney leading to a giant boulder. Walk under the boulder, turn right and either climb up to a short face on the left or stem between the boulder and the face (the latter ends with the same finish as Middle Notch).

It is not a bad route especially if combined with Middle Notch and Outer Notch. I recommend leading Outer Notch then top roping the other two.

Location 

In the notch between Moby Dick and Blair III, staring from the northwest side of Blair III.

To descend rap from anchor above Son of a Wanted Man (maybe 20 feet southwest from Outer Notch).

Protection 

Standard rack.
