Route 7

The left side the large roof at the left end of the Big Enchilada (south) is split by a fist/offwidth crack. A distinctive pine grows on a ledge above the roof. Two cracks, about three feet apart lead up from the ground to this roof. Climb either the left or right crack, or use both until reaching the ceiling. A sharp flake, apparently solid, is used to start the moves through the roof. Easier climbing to the top.

Note that Wa3lt's
