Did not feel it was worthy of the two stars, but definitely worth doing. Traverse in from the left on a finger rail with limited feet. The mantle up to slab from the rail is the crux (off balance) move. From there it eases up to lessor grade slab and face climbing to the shared rap. The first third, crux of the route, is well bolted. Dow
Flue Right is listed as a top rope in the guide. But add two bolts and this would be a great mixed lead. Just to the left of Blind Ambition. Traverse in from the left on a finger rail just like Blind’s traverse start, and then a fun stem move to gain a vertical short finger crack which eventually peters out. Throw in some slab and edges up high for a versatile climb to say the least. Shared fixed rap anchor with The Flue, Blind Ambition and Raven’s Reach, all good climbs for their respective grade. Good rock on all four. Dow

Climbed the Flue with some climbers i met up in the "space station" on the other side of Chimney Rock. It was a very fun route!

The Flue
With Ariel. Ok route. Not overly challenging by Jtree standards. Kind of a fun start.
