Routes in Smoke Bluffs for selected grade

A very chill warmup slab in between the iron ladder and Marjorie Mae. A few somewhat frictiony moves, but generally everything is well textured. Excellent stances make this a great route for beginner trad leaders – just remember to extend your gear.

The small juggy ledge at the top is on, but the crack is off (except for pro), and obviously the ladder is off, too. Shares the same anchor as Marjorie Mae, Tenacious, and The Cagemaster.

## Location

Right between the iron ladder and Marjorie Mae (5.5 crack) at the high upper left side of the crag.

## Protection

SR to 1.5", extended. If top roping, you may want to redirect with a draw affixed to ladder rung two or three down from the top. But DO NOT use the rungs to lead this as a sport route! The ladder rungs are not rated or designed for climbing; falling on a rung could result in serious injury. Lead it with gear, or just use the ladder to set up a top rope.

Start at a large lone boulder and follow the left crack all the way to the top.

See topo at base of crag.

Just passed Funarama on the way up, small wall on the left. This is the first climb on the left of the wall.

Large flake behind the tree. Bring wide gear.
