Description Suggest change

To access the clean, long corner, you have to climb a short thirty foot seam by hard to protect 11+/12- moves to a ledge. From there, it is excellent climbing that is sustained. The book says to break it up into 4 or so pitches, but three long pitches make it a fun sustained climb.

P1. Climb from the 5.11+ on thin gear and to right below the obvious roof and belay (200ft).

P2. 2nd pitch is 170 to a nice ledge.

P3. Last pitch is about 50 feet or so with most of it being easy 5th classing to the top.

Location Suggest change

The route is about 200 yds from Unknown 1 and two. It is the only obvious, sustained corner. To get down, you have to walk about 0.2 of mile to the rap station of Dog Day Afternoon.

Protection Suggest change

For the beginning bring green C3 or black Alien or Ball nuts. After that you it is nice to have doubles all the way to #4 Camalot with one #5 and triples of #0.3-2. If you break the climb up into more pitches, then you could do less gear.
