Description:
Moderate climb that begins at the base of a large right-facing dihedral far right of Piece of Cake. First pitch is kinda weird. Hard to get off ground and hard to navigate. Use slings to prevent rope drag if you go into chimney. Second pitch is perfectly clean 5.7 hand crack, beautiful but not long enough. Descent was not obvious. We climbed down south past 1 gully and then headed towards Turkey Perch. We rapped off a low skinny rock about 2 feet high, 6 inches thick and 4 feet long - down about 60 feet to ground.

Weird
Not that awesome of a climb in my opinion. Bouldery start to easy climbing. Second pitch was kind of boring. Getting down was the most interesting part.
