Description 

Start a few feet right of Central Park. Climb cracks straight up to a small block roof. Pull over the roof and follow cracks to an inset capped by a large roof. Climb to the right of the roof and squeeze through a notch to easier ground.

Two options to get down:

1. Go west up the ridge to a tree that is slung with a rap ring and rap back down.

2. Walk of the back side and wrap around to the top of the ridge and back down to the start.

Location 

Follow the Wind Tower Trail and the East Slabs Descent Route (for Redgarden Wall) to the upper most section of H.E.R.

Protection 

Standard rack.
