Climb the flakes and edges to the top. As of summer 2020, the bolts looked rusty -- though hangers looked ok. |

★★ Exfoliation
Start at the ledge. A bit of a choose-your-own-adventure to the top of the cliff. No obvious anchor -- but can traverse left at the end to the anchors for "Gentle Shist". |
The first two routes (above) start from the wide ledge where "Broken Corner" and "Fine Line" finish.

★★★ Fine Line
Climb up the corner past two bolts, trending right until on top of a ledge, then back left again to a steep finish below the bolted anchor. WKRG gives this a grade of 5.7 -- that's a solidly old-school 5.7. Gear is not plentiful -- you want to be a confident leader at a couple grades above that to lead this one. |
