The northern part of this sector, particularly the area of exposed large-block Talus (generally from "Engage" through "Facing the Black") grows poison ivy quite well. It is generally there from late May until mid- to late autumn, depending on the year.

description

From 'Flaky Flake', walk left along the cliff face, up and over a pile of scree then down again. There will be a slab with a wide zig-zagging crack going up to a ledge about 3m off the ground, with a small overhang about 1.5m above the ledge and a first bolt just above the overhang. Crux is pulling over the overhang, much harder if you are shorter than about 5'8". Then nice climbing up past 3 more bolts to a 2-bolt anchor.
