Eric P. starting grad at Berkeley.


Description 

This route shares the same start as Chicago but traverses right below the triangular niche. After traversing right the crux comes when pulling back to the left on some steeper terrain. The route finishes in a chimney/gully to the right of Chicago's finish. A classic.

Every time that I've climbed this route, I've almost or have gotten stung by wasps nesting in a key hold so be careful, especially if you're allergic to stings.
