Description Suggest change

A fun and well-protected crack leading up to a tree anchor (two cords + two quicklinks as of 8/9/2021). 

Follow the hand-sized crack up into a left-facing corner with good protection along the way. A short chimney section up top will represent the crux for many. The crack will lead you directly to a tree with the anchor. 

If placing a top rope on Kennel Boy (5.10a just to the left of Rock Garden), there is an obvious bolt climber's left just before the end of Rock Garden that can be easily clipped on the way down and offers an easy directional. 

A 60M rope is sufficient length for climbs off this anchor.

Location Suggest change

The route starts just to the right of a large, prominent overlap/roof (about seven to ten feet off the ground) by the cliffs left hand side. The crack, corner, and chimney of Rock Garden is very obvious.

Protection Suggest change

Bring a standard trad rack. There are no bolts or pitons.
