Description
This is a short but sweet line on the right side of the crag. As with the other lines here, this one needs to clean up a tad, but it's quality!
[Beta Warning...Don't read below if you're an onsight stickler.]
Begin at a medium pine tree next to the cliff. Make easy moves up into the crack and place some pro. Now make thinner moves right, following the crack, to a marginal rest and some good gear.
Now tackle the thin crack and hollow flake, placing passive gear only, for a couple moves up to a detached (but solid) flake. This lower half is exciting, the mental crux of the route. Surmount the flake and establish yourself on some small but good feet and clip the bolt. The crack moves are over. Make the crux move and finish at the anchor. Too fun!
Location
This is the rightmost line on the crag. It has a bolted anchor. A single bolt is visible from the base.
Protection
Standard rack with emphasis on small nuts/RPs. No need for anything bigger than a #0.75 Camalot, if that.
There is a bolt at the 10b technical crux, but the mental crux, and the PG-13 rating, come from the first part of the route: A solid 5.9 thin crack then flake that is hollow and at times detached.
Placing RPs in this crack was exciting, but the placements are good...assuming the flake doesn't fail. Recommend using mostly passive pro.
