Description:
This route is awesome. The entry move into the chimney is one that you won't soom forget. Really nice on a hot day. Start on the face with several horizontal cracks about 6 feet left of the start of Mild and Wild. Climb up to an overhang, in a large chimney. Stem across the gap and place gear in a good crack that accepts a variety of pro. Then stem across and slither up into the chimney. Find a bolt in the darkness and then either move up into the chimney and climb the wide crack to the top or move left and join "Simply Red". If you like squeeze chimney moves, stay with the wide crack, you can get #1 and #2 camalots in the back of the crack near the top.
