Two hand cracks start up the wall. Using both cracks it is easy 5.7 but you can choose to induce much more pain to your hands and feet by using only one crack or the other. The rock is quite rough so bring tape if you want to practice jams.

September Flake

Snow Flake Left

The left-most climb is an undercling that starts at ground level. The granite surface is a bit loose and it may not get climbed enough to get clean so be careful. Start off the ground in an undercling and move left and transition into a lieback.

Mantle up onto the ledge, then undercling the flake all the way around to the right and up the face. It is conceivable that the bottom left portion of the flake could break off, so be careful in pulling out on it.

This is a fun flake that turns into a crack higher up.

This is a tightly bolted fun sport climb (4 bolts) or top roped. Mantle up onto the ledge to clip the first bolt. It is conceivable that the bottom left portion of the flake could break off when doing the mantel move, so pull down not out. Once on the ledge moving up doesn't involve pulling on the flake.
