Jam and layback a handcrack splitting a tan and orange wall to a small lege below a roof (25ft.) Climb the body length roof (5.10) on finger and handjams to a slopey ledge. Amble up this and climb an easy 10ft chimney to a spacious tree ledge, I left yellow 1in nylon webbing around a large healthy pine.

Sinful and Sober

North Chick gorge is well known to Chattanooga locals as home to a nice swimming hole called the Blue Hole. It is also a fantastic place for whitewater kayaking, as well as home to several high quality rock climbs. The climbs tend to have adventurous approaches, but are often well worth the effort. Rock quality can be crumbly at the worst, and as good as anything at the best. Expect a mix, as well as some adventure.
