Overview
FA: Alan Bartlett, Dimitri Barton, 1984.

A fun old-school route, Chicken Little starts up a 4” crack, then slab climbs up a dike to a horizontal crack belay, then up slabby lieback cracks to the top of the dome. Lots of runouts on this old-school route – even the lieback cracks up high often have no pro. A selection of smaller cams (.4-1.25”) is required for setting the horizontal crack anchor on top of pitch 1.
