Description
One of the most popular routes in the entire state. Start by following a crack that quickly leads from fingers to fists within a few feet. You don't have to use the crack if you dont want to as there are plenty of face holds. Eventually pull onto a small slab ramp and follow a fist crack to a small roof. Mantle the roof and then cut LEFT after clipping the last bolt. Do not continue going straight up and right as many climbers mistakenly do. Place an optional #2 Camalot in the horizontal slot at the top to tame a small runout at the top if you wish. You can also place a #3 Camalot in the lower fist crack if you want to protect the first few moves before the first bolt. The first bolt might be a tad tricky to spot as it's about 15' up. An optional easier start is listed on the topo. Start on the climb on the right side of the formation. This side is slightly easier than starting left by the crack, but it offers less options for trad placements before the first bolt.
