Description Nice little crux right off the ground with small crimpers all they way to the top. While it is on to use the crack at the top, staying on the face holds is very fun.
Location about five feet to the right of Rock Dove and a couple feet left of the prominent right leaning crack at the bottom.
Protection Top rope only, not real leadable.
Coming over the little bump midway up.

| Tried this in May when the warm weather hadn't dried things up yet, and I felt like I was on a slip and slide. You definitely have to wait for things to dry up since it faces North or else your feet will be sliding all over the bottom section. |

| My friends and I named Picnic and climbed it back in the late seventies. Likely an FA, but who knows? |

| This is a stellar route. From the bottom it looks there there are no holds at all but as soon as you start up it all the holds become apparent. |

| someone pulled a bunch off blocks from the foot rail under the overhang, making surmounting the overhang a bit tougher. Bring a brush up to clean off the rail. |

| Two distinct starts to this one - left and right. They come together where you pull the roof. Both *very* fun with small but positive crimps just where you need them. Tricky feet. |
