Description
Sit start matched in the south west side of the cave formation. Begin by traversing east, finding the lowest possible ledges for hands. You will most certainly need to sprinkle a few heel hooks in there along with some spicy footwork. As you get to the exit of the cave set your feet high and work your way up over the northeast face. The rock gets sharp and brittle here so watch how you distribute your weight. Head straight up a few moves and top out. A clean pumpy line that involves a bit of finess. Climb with a mustache to reduce the rating by one full grade.
Easier variation by using upper handholds before you pull the east bulge. Don’t be a wuss, Harden up and get it done.
Location
Take the trail through the sea grapes to the beach and head south. Travel along the rocks, as they begin to grow in size look for the first cave formation that you can drop down into. The route begins inside the cave on the south wall and works its way east.
Protection
Maybe a spotter for the bulge and top out.
