Description:
3 pitch route, a little of everything. 1) 5.8, steep and interesting corner to small ledge. Nut or cam belay. 2) 5.8, down sloping ledge, then up nice thin crack, then left and up, steep, finally pockets and flakes just left of roof to large sloping ledge. Slings on the right. 3) 5.7, nice chimney and crack, then wide layback to slings on ledge. Walk off only if you're crazy. Roped scrambling leads to a rap anchor up and right past an obvious small slung tree. 1 more rap to ground.

Second ascent by:
Awkward
First time trying sine two shoulder surgeries. P1 was a bit awkward. The thin crack on P2 was sweet but hated the awkward steming to roof with slick feet. Pulled my shoulder falling halfway up the roof section so bailed on the DMZ pitch. Found the 10c sport to the left WAY easier than this climb. Note to self. Don't need to try this again.

Onsight ascent by:
he he he
I led p 1 (sweet cracks) & 3 (went up the thin crack instead of the chimney to climbers left) and Kurt led p 2. On the 3rd p, I climbed way past the tree at the top with the rap slings. Duh! Had to down climb about 15' to make a sling anchor around a big rock. I had climbed past the belay station! Oops. Then I downclimbed some more to where Kurt was patiently waiting (and tapping his foot) HA! We descended the "X" walk off. He he he...icing on the cake! :) Super fun route!
