Description

The crux of this route is a few moves after reaching the first ledge. There is some interesting footwork involved with pulling the crux and this is the only move that would warrant a 5.7 rating. This route is very fun to climb with some jugs littered throughout. Be careful of the seeping rock which might affect parts of this climb. It's best to wait a few days after it rains when the soil is dryer.

Location

Start just left of Zoo-Wee Mama. There is a prominent ledge at head-height. This is the first place to get a footing and place some pro. Follow the crack up and left until you can reach some holds to traverse right toward the mezzanine. Then, pull the crux to end up on top of the mezzanine. Then route finishes via Zoo-Wee Mama and Mama Mia from the mezzanine.

Protection

Light rack to 2 inches. BD #3 works very well on the right side of the mezzanine in a little pocket to protect the final move to the top if you plan to do the alternate top out. Extend your gear! This route wanders a bit.
