Overview
This climb is near Nutcracker and After Six, but is rarely done. Steve Roper in the Green Guide says "FA: TM Herbert and companion, 1968. Several hundred feet right of the Nutcracker is a steep, broad break in the cliffs, containing an undue amount of bushes and dirt. At the extreme right side of this break, and just left of a very steep, clean buttress, lies an obvious chimney system. Although the lower section is dirty, the upper part contains some enjoyable climbing. On the 1st lead be sure to approach the belay tree from the left. Higher, follow chimneys to the top."
