Description
Start on the right side of the face, traverse left under the arching overhang and ascend the first crack through an overhang (5.9). Continue up a slab and finish on Old Tradition 5.7 or move right to finish on easier terrain. Note that Old Tradition ascends a smaller and easier overhang to the left. To descend, rappel the route or walk left (west) and downclimb a short (10') class 4 section at the end of the rock.
Location
Rock just uphill from War Party and The Chief, and below Hummingbird Spire. The route is several feet to the right of Old Tradition.a.k.a. the third rock up from shute-mills main wall that Mystery Hole is on. (Rock at 38.651467, -122.618525)P.S. There is also a nice afternoon shade spot near here
