Description Climbs the face on the left side of the crack with the sumac bush growing out of the top. Fun, varied, steep climbing on edges and pockets. The bolting is little bit "sporty" compared to some of the Echo moderates, but the protection is where you need it. Traverses right under the sumac to finish. Shares the anchor with Morning Glory.
Location This route is located just right of Wet Bush and left of the obvious crack.
Protection Bolts and fixed anchor.

| "Sumac" offers fun and committing moves up the steep wall left of the obvious crack. The route is clean, but each hold should be carefully assessed for dependability. |
