Description

Some interesting moves, too bad it's not longer.

GIves access to nice platform at top of sector Chouinard with nice rappel, or can rappel from top anchor of this route.

directions

: Start at large bush above the big bulge with thin crack splitting through its center and chimney through its left side.

Up non-steep on vague ridge above large bush. Then turn Right up small slab to 6-ft-high wall facing NW with cracks in it. Up over this, then face left and go up along crack to reach tree at top with rope anchor. Or if want to go higher to a pleasant platform, there is a natural anchor about 20 feet higher with a rock horn or pair of rocks forming a hole.

warning

: The rock in this sector has not been climbed much yet, and much of the rock is still breakable and loose -- so the belayer and other people should stand far away from underneath the climber.

Location

At large bush on top of big bulge with thin crack splitting through its center and chimney through its left side.

Most obviously reached by climbing the route "CR Upper Right Face" or "Upper Right Corner".

Or by carefully scrambling across top of Central Fins area after climbing some other route.
