Stuck Lil' Smokie

V2, Boulder, 8 ft (2 m),  Avg: 2.4 from 5 votes
FA: Mary Bjorklund
S Dakota > Needles Of Rush… > Iron Mountain > 1st Pigtail Bridge > Oinker Wall

Description

To start, perch yourself upon the small rock at the bottom of the route a hand jam start can be found. Then, work your awkward magic up the short and trickier-than-it-looks finger pod crack. Top out and scramble back down (climbers left). Perhaps if you are tall or have hotdogs for fingers you could just dyno to the top....?

Location

From the road, hike uphill a minute through the aspen grove to the small wall with several crack features.
