Description 

This is a very steep and moderatly "reachy" face climb. It can be more difficult for short climbers. Lead up to the bolt and then continue up and slightly to the left following good but somewhat widely spaced holds. This is fairly steep at the start, and the difficulty only eases after the first 60 feet. Decent placements for smaller cams exist.

Location 

Rap into a shallow alcove from the second stunted pine tree past the parking lot. Same start as Slim Pickins. Move right about 10-15 feet to the right, faacing the wall to the start of the route. The bolt is an obvious marker.

Protection 

Fixed pro consists of one bolt and a fixed piton. Additional pro needed; a standard rack with a few QDs will suffice.
