Description

Climb slabby, fun moves to a prominent ledge with a tree/bush, which can also be accessed by scrambling from the left.  At this point you're facing the thin crux of the route, just above the ledge.  You do not want to fall here. After this, engage the flake system above that has a few suspect holds.  Traverse right from the flakes surmount a final boulder problem, and find the chains off to the left.

Location

West Face of Big Rock, to the left of a chimney (the chimney is an alternate route called "Small But Fancy"). You'll climb to a ledge with a small tree/bush and then it's straight up!

Protection

All bolted.  Two alpine draws are essential (a couple more are better) to limit rope drag high on the pitch.

Note: This route is not well-suited for top roping due to rope drag.
