Description
Start up the underside of the flake and follow it to the end. After that take a wandering path of least resistance to the anchors through a series of edges and pockets.
This route was established as a trad route circa 2010. However the route was originally top roped using headpoint tactics due to the questionable integrity of the upper flake and sparse protection on the face above it. There was also some uncertainty if the route was ever actually freed on gear. The route went apparently unclimbed for over a decade. After discussion with the FA it was decided that the route would better serve the community as a sport route and was retro-bolted in 2023. It now is an excellent sport climb and should get the love it deserves.
