Description

This is an area we've dubbed the RoadKill Buttress, it's a tasty buffet filled with a whole heaping helping of easy to moderate southern-fried sandstone.  Fill up on wide cracks mixed with incut plates, face climbing and all around fun moves with good protection. Belly up if you're hankering for some easier climbing without the usual sandbags attached.

On the starting ledge towards the middle of the face, look up to see a wider crack that passes a big blob of moss and a small tree.  Follow this obvious crack and then a bit of chimney as you make your way to the top.

Location

Above the main trail, scramble to the base of Anteater. Walk a few steps right and use the large bent tree to hop down to a wide, grassy ledge. The following collection of easy routes start along this face that runs parallel to the trail far below.

Protection

Mid-size to large cams, otherwise standard rack. Slings and biners on tree at the top.
