Although we thought about it, Scott and I did not do the FA in our bikinis. Had it been mostly 4s, we probably could have gotten away with it. The name is derived from the flock of individuals down at the beach whom were wearing bikinis and singing our praises on the FA day. Nothing like sunshine and bikinis to really make you try hard and feel like a hero.

P1 - Climb the chimney pitch of Wave Rider to get to the anchors.

P2 - From the anchors, traverse right and start up the wide squeeze. Squeeze, grovel, and lieback your way up the crack system. Very important, don't forget to wink and wave to the beach-goers as you pull through the hero roof. And remember, if you take a screamer, that little kids down at the beach will never forget it. A #7 will make the upper section of this pitch more comfortable but it is not required.

P1 (5.8) - Easy chimney start with two bolts to protect (painted tan and blend in very well with rock; trust me, they are there). After second bolt, exit to ledge and continue up crack seam to a two bolt anchor. There is still quite a bit of rat skat up here. We tried to clean this up fairly well but there was only so much we could do. Enjoy. 

 P2 (5.10) - Employ at little mixed technique to establish in the crack system off the ground. Use a combination of jams and face features to pull the roof. Once over roof, traverse slightly left to establish in crack seam and take it to a two bolt anchor. Make sure you leave a directional low when establishing in the left crack seam to the top; I bumped a cam here on the FA and created some unnecessary drag/rope pinching. 

 Note: This is sandstone climbing. We tested all of the face and crack features and everything that is left is fairly solid. 

Climb finger-sized crack that widens and gets quite nice. At the overhanging hand crack at the top, surf the jugs to the anchors.  Loose anchor bolt replaced as of 2019.

Very enjoyable offwidth. Highly recommend for those wide officianados or someone trying to get a little more wide technique under their belt. Don't let the roof moves down low intimidate you; channel your inner Oreo and grovel on up! 

Starts on the upstream side of the fin, somewhat hidden by the trees at it's bottom. Goes up nice hand crack to strenuous transition move left then up dicey vein of rock with crack on either side to two bolt anchor.

First pitch is very nice hands and foot jams, rock is sound but sandy in spots 5.9+. Second pitch starts up short arching offwidth crack to traverse move past a bolt and balancy moves past buldge to top.
