Description

1st Pitch: Finger crack up a beautiful left facing dihedral. (Some very wide stemming is possible)

2nd Pitch: Continue straight up past a left trending finger crack with a perfect ramp for your feet. Trend right past an old bolt with homemade hanger to a large obvious dihedral. We stayed on the face just left of the dihedral to avoid a few loose blocks.

This route has obviously had somebody on it in the past due to fixed gear, so if you know any info other that stated here then please comment.

Location

Located on the south side of the Sugarloaf near the rappel. Approach the same as Flea Tree, but continue around until you reach a 5th class slab with rappel anchors on top. Either climb the slab to reach the base of the route or scramble through 3rd & 4th class terrain to the right to reach the base.

Protection

Small gear to #2 Camalot Hand to fist size gear for first anchor, bolts for second anchor.
