Description

The full line into the classic flakes. Slide on down into the small cave, sometimes it is flooded so get at it when you can.

Sit start with some foot trickery and a sloping left hand pinch and a good 2-3 finger pocket for the right hand. Make a hard cross to another pocket-like hold in the crack and then make another hard move to a flat crimp rail. Figure out how to reach the jug, before turning on the kill switch and blasting your way through the rest of the flakes into a tricky top section.

The second half of this climb is "Cilley Flakes". The first half is shared with "Mud Puddle of Your Mind".

Location

The left side of the elongated overhang that faces the road.

Protection

3-5 pads and a spotter or two. Top can get cruxy.
