Description Suggest change

Warning: a 70m rope required to rap or toprope off the anchors!!

This is a popular route, both because of its grade and the fact that it is the first moderate route reached on the approach trail. The climbing is a times awkward, and the bolts somewhat out-of-reach, but the position and length of the pitch make the climb worthwhile in the end. The rock is still a little loose, so take care and wear a helmet.

Beginning at the bottom of a huge left facing corner, this route climbs up and left and heads directly up the huge headwall above the roof. The climbing isn't super difficult, but the unpredictable nature of the holds, awkward moves, and length of the route slowly build to a nice pump.

Location Suggest change

The approach trail hits the cliff right at this route. It begins at the bottom of a huge, left facing corner with undesirable looking rock. Begin up this corner to reach the first bolt to the left, then start trending up and left to the next bolts.

Protection Suggest change

Bolts - approximately 10. Chain anchor. This climb is a little sporty a times, particularly clipping the first bolt.
