A broad stretch of rock with a grand array of routes both single and multi-pitch. Much of the cliff is undercut forming the crux sections of several on the climbs. Just left of the topo is a fine wall with another half-a-dozen excellent face climbs in the 7a/7b range - consult the local topo-guide for details. Guidebook page 114.
