Description

Combine this with

Monodoigt

&

Thinner

and your tips may tingle. Find this climb on the West side of the Hand behind a tree perhaps 150 feet downhill from

Monodoigt

. The tree close to the route provides shade for most of the route.

Pull onto the overhanging rock with jugs. Contort or a backstem to the tree leads up to smaller edges on a flake. Pull-up on better holds slightly to the right of the bolts. There is a fingertip bucket near the second bolt best utilized with the R hand. There is a high left step mid-height with small edges for the tips. Crimp with some power to near the 5th bolt for a crux pinching a small pebble right.

You can avoid the first overhang and first bolt with a scramble left and stem out onto the face.

Protection

5 QDs plus something for the 2 bolt anchor
