Mike scoping Slam Dance.

Description 

Climb the awesome 20 foot dihedral handcrack to a ledge. There, turn around and climb up into and through the squeeze chimney. Belay on trees above. Awesome rock.

You can also continue up and right instead of turning around at the ledge, but it's a little chossy and not as fun, in my opinion.


Location 

At the far left end of the Reality Wall, hike to the back of the cave on the right side of the thumb. Start in the handcrack in the right corner.


Protection 

Gear to 3.5". Rap off trees into the chimney or hike to a walkdown.

You really don't want to rap back down the route. Leave your packs on the outside of the cave, climb the route, and then rap from the big pine which is left of Arkansas Reality. This way you don't have to scramble back up in the cave when your'e done.
