Description 

Climb Maylou to its anchor and continue up the slab to the hanging headwall. Tackle the 10' wide grey streak with easy moves starting out but a crux a couple of bolts up on sloping holds traversing up and left.

A 70m rope left me a little short of the ground so it is better to rethread through the lower anchor, or face a 15' down climb to the ground. BELAYER BEWARE. tie a knot in the end of the rope.

Location 

Starts up Marylou and continues up the great wide grey streak to the top of the wall. Near the low point of the half moon cut out in the top of the cliff.

Protection 

Bolts and a bolted anchor.
