The prominent groove in the right wall of the buttress is relatively short but gives exciting, steep, unusual and sustained climbing although the rock is a little suspect on the bulging upper rib. Start below the groove at the foot of a right-slanting ramp. Climb the ramp, pull through the overlap and climb the groove past a jug to a blunt spike on the left. Gain a bridging position on the spike top and big handholds on the upper edges of the block at the base of the bulging rib above. A good jug above and layaways on the right allow a stretch up and left to a spiky jug on Dead Man’s Fist. Exit as for that.

βeta: Protection beta: Protection over the top bulge is hard to see. When you get both hands to the good holds on top of the block with your left hand in the crack on its left side, a 00 (Small Blue) Dragon cam goes in the crack above your left hand. | ||
