Description

There are almost no moderates at this cliff and when I saw this one in the guidebook I was hoping to find a hidden gem. To put it nicely, it has a lot of potential, but unfortunately dirt and plants keep this route from being a good moderate option. Climb the obvious twin cracks straight up, battling through some ferns in the crack on the left. Continue up the dual cracks to a leafy top out, taking care not to slip. Belay on a tree. Altogether I think this could be really cool if it got cleaned, as it would be cool to have another Firebird or Kiddy Crack in the valley.

Location

From where the approach trail meets the wall, take a right and hike up and right past Bandit, round the corner and head slightly uphill where you will see twin cracks on the left with some vegetation.

Protection

Standard rack, doubles in the larger sizes.
