BETA PHOTO: Zombie Woof Rock.
Photo by Blitzo.


Description 

This unmistakable rock is around the corner and to the northwest of Houser Buttress Area and features the striking thin crack testpiece of Zombie Woof (5.12b) on it's east face.

No fixed anchors exist atop this formation requiring a simul-rap or a downclimb of the crack on the west face (5.8).


Getting There 

Continue 100 yards past Houser Buttress, then follow a wash about 50 yards north.

The name Zombie Woof comes from a Frank Zappa tune of the same name, off the 1973 Overnite Sensation album.
