Description:

Offwidth style chimney to the left of Used cars and the cave entrance. Getting started is the crux of this climb. It may also be liebacked, but appears to be much easier liebacking. I named this one Shoulder Jam, because when I went up, I got my shoulders jammed and rested on them.

Descent Options:

walk off top to the right.

5 out of 5 stars fun

I led it first,then Ryan, then Thomas. We thought we were doing something new (ground up leads - no top roping). We named it "The Sardine Effect".

3 out of 5 stars Fun climb

This climb is worth the effort. Be aware of the loose boulder towards the top. It is not one you need to touch, so just be advised.
