The route begins in a left-facing corner that transitions into a right-facing corner, requiring climbers to navigate through finger to cupped-hand widths. It is rated as moderate difficulty. The climb was first ascended by Kevin Dunkak and Mike Milne in 1999. Parking is available at the site, and pets are permitted.
