Description
The Hedgehog, the Mousetrap and the Squid - 5.10/A0 ** (90') M (9b)
Like three routes in one... Begin at the vertical crack on the right side of the main face. Climb this to the dark band (5.7 trad). Step left at the top of the crack (avoiding the bushes) and once above the dark band traverse left a few feet and follow the line of bolts to the pair of chain anchors on top. This is a diverse and challenging route with a wonderful trad crack, then a bolted face with a blank middle section that requires pulling on a couple of bolts to keep it 5.10. Cruxy both below and above the "bolt ladder".
