Description
Start roughly 35 feet to the right of Hhecht and around a corner at the base of an obvious, right-facing corner. Climb the obvious, right-facing corner to the top of the formation.
Location
Start roughly 35 feet to the right of Hhecht and around a corner at the base of an obvious dihedral.
Protection
Carry a typical JT rack, trad anchor.
Descent:
From the big ledge at the top of this climb, walk to climber's left behind the central summit of Locomotion Rock. Make one 5.0 move in a short crack (perfect hand jam, nice foothold, stand up) to gain the ledge at the top of Leaping Leaner. If you somehow slipped from this trivial move, you'd go about four feet and land on the big ledge. Rappel from the Leaping Leaner anchor with a single rope.
