Description:
Scramble to the top of a block to the right of "Katherine Finds an Edge". Belay from here. The first bolt can be clipped before stepping across the gap and starting the climb. The 75+ foot void, that drops to the base of Jete and Dancer, makes the start feel quite airy and exposed. Great position! Climb the face on knobs (of various sizes) past closely-spaced bolts to a bolted anchor.Descent Options:
Lower or Rap back to the block. Be careful not to descend past the block!

Airy
Fun, knobby and even a little exposure
