Description Thin climbing with skimpy gear past a short crack leads to easier face climbing through the middle section and fun steeper climbing up high.
Location Between Passages, the dihedral on the right and Steeplechase, the arete on the left with Super Slide just to the left of The Sweep.
Protection Standard Trad stuff...tri-cams and thin stuff helpful. Rap rings shared with Passages, etc.

| Climbed this route again this weekend, and it is a really fun route. The hard moves are right off the ground - couple of nuts work nicely to protect the start. There is is a run-out section in the middle that is on easier ground and it finishes with fun steep climbing up high. |
