Fern

FA unknown
CREATED 
UPDATED 

Description

Fern is steady 5.3 climbing straight up the finger crack on the steepish, 25-foot face to the right of Offwidth route. The crack alternates between unprotectable, flaring grooves and finger pockets that take gear. Juggy holds make for an easy topout at the middle ledge; you can descend by carefully scrambling down the steep gully to the (climber's) right. You can also continue to scramble from the middle ledge to the top of Pinnacle Rock and walk off the summit trail.

Location

Look for the distinguishable finger crack between the Offwidth route and the descent gully. The route finishes to the right of the double-trunk tree on the middle ledge.

Protection

Gear up to 2" or toprope with a gear anchor.
