Description
The start is on the right side of the rope up ledge for Snake Dike. First pitch heads right for a short pitch to an anchor on 1/4" bolts then the second pitch follows a runout dike the moving slightly left leads to a runout face that joins Snake Dike at the end of the second pitch then goes straight up the face above the anchor, don't traverse left as that leads to the Snake Dike. Natural pro is needed for the 10B pitch up high. Following 6 pitches are primarily 5.7 with some sections of 5.9 to easy 5.10 and use some spaced bolts and a variety of gear.
