MapDescription
The technical crux on this one is the .7 squeeze (very secure). The mental crux is pitch two. It is reminiscent of the top of Chingando (cavernous).
All climbers should try some Chuck Pratt routes, and this is an easier one. A favorite among Yosemite obscurity lovers.
Location
Approach same as for Five and Dime. Just continue toward the eastern side of the cliff. Walk past a huge left facing chimney system and continue east. Look for a flake/pillar with a squeeze on the left side. This is the start. After the climb, walk/scramble off to the east. Then walk through the tunnel to the pullout at Reed's.
Protection
Standard rack plus all your wide gear. #5, and #6 friend for sure. Slings.
