Description Suggest change

Climb the face and crack past the pod to a stance on a small ledge up and left of the crack. Find a marginal small cam placement (Purple Mastercam or similar..it's a little hidden, but it's there) and make a reachy move up to a very positive hold and then move up above the alcove to just below a large tree on a ledge. Move up and right to a short wall. Climb the short wall to a large ledge and tree belay at the base of a steep wall with two bolts above (Touch and Go). The final 15 feet or so is unprotected 5.3 climbing.

It's a little dirty right now but will improve with more traffic. Be careful getting up to the start as the soil is loose in this area.

Location Suggest change

Walk up the steps towards the start of Worrell's Thicket in the Skyline area. At the top of the steps, follow the "social trail" up along the base of the Southeast Corner. About 40 yds or so uphill from Worrell's Thicket you will see a large, left-facing alcove. Just left of this alcove is a face with a crack and pod on the right side. There are two old, bent pitons near the bottom of the crack. Start where the crack comes down, just beneath the overhanging alcove.

There is a super-thread with rap rings on the tree at the base of Touch and Go. A 60m will get you to the base. Be sure rap to the left of the large tree below you.
