Named for the shark fin hangers that were recycled from old snowstakes when
retro bolted by Spoon who thought it was a new route. The first belay station
is only there as a rap point (if you don't have 2 ropes) so truck on by on a
nice long 50m pitch. Nick originally climbed the route on trad gear.

This climb starts from a double hanger anchor slightly left of where the track arrives. Climb up the slab between two ribs before moving left up and over the left rib. Continue up a small corner or R into the large yellow scoop then left past a double ring abseil station and straight up through a small overlap .
