Description
1st Pitch; 100 ft
Start up the wide crack to the top of the flake, can use a #4 or #3 Camalot. Continue up the steep thin crack (crux) to a right facing dihedral. From here traverse right (and around the corner) on easier ground to the anchor for the bolted routes or continue up another dihedral to belay at a large tree.
2nd pitch; 120 feet
If belaying from the bolts, head right into the corner and head up. If belaying from the tree, the climber needs to head back left into the corner/crack and then up (don't head straight up directly from the tree). The crux is in the corner system roughly left of the tree. Follow the crack/corner up until the crack gives way to blockier terrain Angle slightly right on better than it looks rock while aiming for a notch at the top of the cliff that's located to the right of the pine tree. Belay off the large tree at the back of the ledge. Extend your belay so you can sit at the edge of the cliff face to watch your climber.
