Description
If you want to keep it adventurous, then don't read this:
This route offers a mix of slab, crack, face and off-width climbing. 1st good piece of pro goes in the undercling. Ascend to the deck. Continue up the flared crack for 5.7 climbing - sparse but fair placement. Good footing and ledgy handholds continue up to the green scales. Hand jam to and past the no-longer, remarkably stable fin. Crux is at the beginning of the off-width. Dial it in for some spicy and interesting technical maneuvers. Exit the off-width for brief face & arete climb. Anchors with rapp rings are on the right.
Rack for first ascent was composed as follows:
Wild country friends: .75, 1, 2(x2), 3, 4.
