This is the largest of the crags in the Upper Blair area. It has a rather undignified name. It is the highest and northeast-most crag in the Upper Blair collection. It has the area classic, Spectreman and the eye-catching Mystery Blocks routes. Note, the pleasant Behind Blue Eyes is nearby perhaps 200 yards to the south.
