Description 

This route is usually one of the first to come in and one of the last to leave. The steepness varies greatly and variations are numerous. The standard line starts at the bulgy section on the left and move up and right, eventually traversing to the lone tree about 3/4 of the way up. You can rap from here with a 70m. If you continue to the top you will need a second rope to descend in one rap.

Pro: Screws

Location 

This route is one of the first big flows you come across on your way from Nipigon. On your right you will see a large free standing pillar known as Parallax and a little ways passed that you will see Mellow Yellow. Park as far off to the side as possible.
