Description
The short start goes past some spooky but fairly solid blocks and takes you to the bottom of the Scuffle and Dust Cough corner. At this point you climb the crack/corner just left of S&DC. There is one stout clip at the crux. I found the crux reachy at 5'6" tall. The gear is good with bolts between the good gear. The moves to the belay ledge are hard to decipher but as good as they get. 2)Climb corner to bombay flake above which you head right to a bolt. Up and right again leads to some really fun moderate dihedral climbing with great pro. The end of this climb is on nice face with two bolts. Two raps with a 60M rope(JUST REACHES) get you back to the ground. I Did this thing ground up with Manny, our first climb together. It was a blast.
Protection
Bolts and an expanded single rack, The first pitch needs a red camalot down to a blue,purple and grey metolius microcams. We fourth classed up to the start of the route at the base of the Scuffle and Dust Cough Corner. You might want pro to reach it. Second pitch will need doubles of purple to yellow camalot and one blue for the flake 30 feet up.
