Description Suggest change

Follow the bolts on the SW arete for four pitches (max 100'). Beautiful climbing on clean quartzite! Climb the S face on gear to make a great day.

Protection Suggest change

Fixed stations and entirely bolt protected. Bring 12-14 qd's. Rap with a single rope (you may need to clip the rappel rope back in on the 3rd rappel).
