Description
Pitch 1 - 5.8
Follow the left corner up to a bushy ledge, then onto a flake before finishing left of a roof pulling trees until you're on top of First Ledge. Tree belay. Can be skipped via a low 5th gully to the right.
Pitch 2 - 5.8
Climb the face left of the obvious corner. Scrambling up cracks and shelves until you reach Crescent Ledge. Tree belay.
Pitch 3 - 5.9
Move the belay to the far left of Crescent Ledge climbing over a large boulder along the way. Scramble up a corner with horizontal cracks on its right side to a small ledge. Follow blocky twin cracks up and left. Once on the ledge scramble up and left to a tree belay that resembles the Watcher of the Mines of Moria (an octopus).
Pitch 4 - 5.7
Pull up low-angle blocks and ledges to the top.
Tree raps to the ground.
