Fote Hog

Incredible climb for the grade, especially the first pitch. While the majority of the climb is easy, falling on the first vertical crack or during the traverse would most likely lead to injury because of the lack of protection.

P1: Climb an easy ramp up to the tree. At the tree follow a thin vertical finger crack for a bit before traversing right until you are under the chicken heads. Pull the roof and set up the belay on the ledge past the chicken heads.

P2: Climb an easy flake and then either continue up the flake to the left or climb the finger crack to the right. Once atop the flake, follow the obvious easy dihedral.

5 minute walk from the hidden valley trailhead. Easy to locate on the east side of Sentinel. Look out for the patina scales on the first pitch.

Single rack to #3. Black and blue totems are useful for the first vertical crack. Gear belays. Lots of slings to avoid rope drag on the first pitch.
