Description
This is a good short climb worth doing if you are in the area for The Thief and other cragging. It is just to the left of the terrace which The Thief and The Joker start off of.
There is a 30ft tall block at the base of the wall. The Princess starts up the left side of the block in a somewhat dirty fist and offwidth crack. From the top of the block climb another 30 feet of thin cracks/flakes with abundant footholds to reach the bolted anchors just below the small roof.
The rap bolts have been recently replaced and are bomber.
