Description :

Number 2 on the topo.
Climb directly up to the obvious crack in the left side of the overhang. Pull over this and finish up the crack above. Quite sustained.

First Ascent : J.Smoker (1960)

This classic suffered a name change for a short while as the then owner was religious and thought Hate was negative. Changed the name to Thea. He changed the names of quite a few climbs, usually naming them after friends, family and benefactors. Terry.
