Description

An interesting 5.4 with a bouldery start.

P1: Move up the crack at the base, then move left onto the slab. There are great hands for the entire route. The route wanders back and forth for protection, but veers right to an uncomfortably small birch tree with some super sketchy tat. I would not rely on this tree staying for long and definitely do not rappel here! If you have a 60m+, I would consider climbing slightly higher to more solid trees.

P2: Scramble to the top of the ledge, across plenty of lichen. There are multiple small trees and a significant scree field. Cross the scree field and there is a good tree with a rappel ring. This rappel is some old tat, a new cordelette, and a steel ring that has seen better days. This rappel should be replaced soon with new webbing and rings!

Location

First climb at the Cheep Date area. In a right-facing corner with a crack at the bottom.
