Description 

Starts in a left facing corner under a pockety roof. Nice bouldery start. Traverse right on good holds and pull the lip. Fall potential isn't pleasant, so don't fall. Get your solo head on! Get a good spot if you feel like it.

After the lip, work your way mostly straight up over 5.8+ish terrain, and slightly to the left to bolt anchors (you won't see them till the very top). No stars in the Dixie guide, but should have 1 or 2! Worth if for the cool start.

Location 

About 40' right of The Wood Spirit tree.

Protection 

No pro first 10'. Small to medium cams. Ring anchors.
