Description

Another short but tough climb just right of Perpetual Frustration Machine, challenges all the way up. Rated 9+ in some places, everyone I've met thinks it's harder.     Start in the corner under the overhang, step onto an easy ledge 2 ft up , move left using a good hold under the overhang, then the hard moves begin as you go up. Anchors at the top.

Location

Near the (climbers) right end of the cliff, the side which connects to the DEC trail. Not far past Plumber's Crack, it is next to Perpetual Frustration Machine. You start under the overhang (12 ft high) PFM starts on the arête.    As always, Adirondack Rock has good information and a diagram which shows the location well.

Protection

Takes about 5 min hiking  to easily and safely set up s a to set a top rope, it would be a scary trad lead. The DEC hiking trail goes right by the top anchors, and they're easy to find if wanted.
