Description
Lots of fun interesting moves.
Directly over the highest point of the low wall, without using footholds to the left or right side. Step across the ledge to the base of the left-trending diagonal ramp. A couple of moves up the ramp, then straight up to and through the left-facing corner above, and finish straight to the top.
warning: The rock on and around this route has not been climbed much yet, and much of the rock is still breakable and loose -- so the belayer and other people should stand far away from underneath the climber - (and if possible, behind a large tree).
. . . (Lots of vegetation on this rock as of 2016. Be prepared when climbing to navigate around protruding trees and branches, and dealing with holds slippery with grass, lichen, moss, dirt).
