Description

Start in a small dihedral with a finger crack (often mungy), crank through the two roofs, and then whip out some ninja trad skills to pull up through the slot.

Then enjoy the steep but brief jug haul to the top.

Definitely a route to get on in the fall.  The bottom crack is hard to find totally dry, and the top will be dripping water for most of late winter and well into the spring.

Location

Far right end of Poison Ivy Wall, just left of the route on the corner, Casual Business

This is not the end of poison ivy... but we were working on getting there!  Perhaps you get why it is called the Poison Ivy Wall?  All that foliage on the wall to my left... Yup, you guessed it!
