Length: 60 meters
This is a spectacular climb. The beginning of the route is a moderate warmup for the steep pillar to come. The pillar is 40-50 feet in length and provides a nice crux. One may climb up and left of the main pillar to a good tree anchor or ascend straight through the main pillar. An anchor exists below the finish on this climb to the right that allows a toprope on some thin mixed terrain.
FA: Martin Martinez, Wayne Mushrush, 1989.
Anchor: Many alder bushes are available for setting up anchors.
