Description This is the first climb you come to if you follow the traditional approach trail. 3 bolts in a shallow groove mark the climb. Climb the groove to a ledge .10a. Then follow a beautiful hand crack out a flare .7 to the top.

| first pitch is tricky, the bolts were replaced but the second bolt is much lower than the original second bolt which makes the mantle scary as you would take a nice slider. |

| God!!! I fixed it, what more do you want from me! Just kidding, I try to add FA/FFA/FRA when I can. I don't look at the guides as much and add routes when I get stuck in the office. I thought that I have added credit where credit is due on most of the routes I've added here. Will try to be better in the future |

| This route is shorter than 200', and much shorter than the description in the Webster guide. You can rap from the double bolt anchor at the top of the second pitch to the ground with one 60 meter rope. The aforementioned guide pegs the 1st pitch at .10a and 90' (its more like 40')and the second at 5.7, 120' (which is actually 70'). |

| 10a seems the right grade but I'd add a PG-13 rating to caution leaders -- it stays tricky for 10' above the 2nd bolt, and a fall from up there would be nasty. The clean corner on the second pitch is "old school" 5.7, awkward in places. Protects well with cams and nuts, although you can see daylight through the crack. As noted above, you can rap with one 60m from bolt anchors at the top of P2. There's some old tat at the P1 belay not worth clipping. |
