Description

Starts up a slab just to the right of Knapsack, under a large tree.  Climb easy, low angle slab until it starts to get steeper where you can clip a bolt (first pro) that is about 50ft up, then make a few 5.7 friction moves past the bolt and follow the crack on the right to the ledge and up between two bushes to the fixed pins (that are smashed in a flake, hard to see) belay here.

(Pitch two) Move up and ever so slightly left following cracks and hidden gear placements to a bolt that protects a short traverse into some cracks. Move up under a small roof (look for the pin - pin may be gone) then climb strait up thin cracks and dikes to another bolt. Follow the thin cracks up past a few more small bulges to another bolt then move up and left to easier climbing up a flake and make a gear anchor where you can(there are a couple of nice ledges).

A short easy pitch leads to the top.

Pitch 2 and 3 could be linked together with a 70m rope.

Location

Right of Knapsack. Just look for the bolt about 50ft up on a slab.

Protection

Cams .2"-2"(doubles .2 to .5),  Offsets nuts 1 set and lots of slings.
