Description
This gorgeous line starts to the right of the start of Upper Refuse and Black Lung.
P1- 5.10a- 80'- Climb the dihedral past two pins and traverse under the roof (crux) and up to a two bolt belay ledge on the right hand face.
P2- 5.10a- 120'- Step left off the belay ledge and continue up the crack system until it ends. Traverse left onto a small ledge (crux), and follow over to the top section of upper refuse. Belay from the top of Upper Refuse. If you are not using double ropes, don't place any gear on or after the traverse. If you do, your second could take a nasty swing.
