Description
This is a good route, totally worth doing if you're already in the area for Sparerib.
P1. Fantastic climbing. Ascend crack to small ledge with tree (30') and follow the obvious zig zag crack to top of the rib. Slightly rusty but still good chain anchor (as of 2021). Maybe 5.7? Easier than the 5.8 of Sparerib for sure.
You can either continue to P2, or go down. You can TR or lower from here with a 60m and barely make it, tie knots. You could also rap and do 10 feet of easy downclimbing (less rope stretch with rapping).
P2. This is supposedly not nearly as good as the first pitch. Veer up and left following dirty low-angled chimney all the way to the top. Walk off.
