Description

Well named. Most of the holds have sand on them, still overall, a fun route. There are three variations, each following one of the three vertical cracks about 1/2 way up the route. Follow steeper rock to the top.

PG13 because rock falling isn't so healthy for your belay.

Location

Just Right of the Phantom Fifth.

Protection

TR. There are 3 newer looking bolts (use your own judgement) over the edge on top of the Island that can be used to set up this climb and Phantom Fifth.

nb, it's top rope and run outs are never possible.
