This hidden gem of Duluth is one of the most asthetic climbs in town. Starting with off-width and ending with hands, this crack should be 200 feet long! But it's not. The crack is 20 to 25 feet. The finish is a mantle to a small ledge and a couple easy moves to top out. Don't let the 5.6 rating fool you...this is a sweet route and may be a touch sandbagged if your crack technique is iffy. Go climb it now...
Location
Little Foxx...it's the prettiest route there so you cannot miss it! About 40 feet left of RTF. Follow a precarious deer trail to the ledge this starts from or follow the trail from South Little Fox.
Protection
Cams from .75 to 3. Ring anchors at top - If you use them to TR please your own draws...
Fresh anchors at the top finally! Please your own draws to top rope...

A #4 BD works well down low, anchors are a bit offset to the left making any TRing difficult. This is definitely the best roped climb at Fox Rocks, the only draw back is that it is so short.
