Access Issue: Private Logging Land: no access in high fire danger, don't drive past the gate.
Details
Private land info on the sign at the gate (please see photo). Follow all rules on the sign to ensure future access.
When a red fire hazard sign is posted, access is temporarily not allowed.
If you encounter logging personnel be courteous and follow any instructions. Access is a privilege.
Don't block the gate. Park well away from the corner/intersection on west boundary road, or in the two spots just right of the gate. (please see photo). Stay out during active logging operations, gate is often left open during these times.

Description
The striking "Axe Blade" arete that begins from the pedestal. All-time movement and position.
Stick clip the high first glue in and start up very easy blocky ground from the far left. Get set up below the arete, enter a punchy but elegant compression boulder, and then hang on for gymnastic, core-draining resistance. No chalking for 12 moves: a satisfying fight.
Helpful (and safe) to skip the clip at the lip. Especially considering the area and the difficulty, there aren't any injurious or painful holds, no monos, nothing too sharp, just powerful and fun. Not my style at all, would prefer not to even grade the route, were that an option on mp.
Definitely my favorite route at Lookout, and one of my favorite FAs anywhere.
