this beauty is a short hand and fist crack featuring your typical skagway munge and the occasional xenolith

the confident beginner will find him or herself 15 feet up in approach shoes before they remember their chalk bag is still on the ground, but top out anyway. slightly downward sloping knobs and horizontal cracks are the nombre del juego here, can (and should) be climbed many ways

crux is final moves. majority of the crack is thin hands with a section of flared, shallow fists towards the top and a final flared finger lock. top can feel a bit desperate, sometimes you just have to give'r

This cheeky little pebble provides excellent granite climbing maxing out at an elevation of approximately 40 feet. There are an assortment of engaging highballs or solos (top-roping may be possible but is never recommended, bring copious yardage of webbing to sling 'round trees if feeling sacrilegious) ranging from low commitment traverses to easily down-climbable face and crack with slab climbs. Bring your best array of sticks to brush lichen and spiderwebs out of the desired cracks and holds.
