Description
Pull a technical mantle (easier if you are taller) and clip the first bolt. A spot is not out of the question before clipping the bolt. Slabby moves lead past the second bolt to the base of a thin crack. Off balance thin fingers lead up to and over a roof.
The route is most easily approached from the right. As you look at the rock from the pullout, the top of a dead tree is visible. The route begins in a pit right of the tree.
