Keeping climbing areas open and conserving the climbing environment

Description Good sport climb on the neck of the Camel. Faces due east, so we were able to do it in the noon shade which was nice. First bolt you clip from the ground, then actually step down and left. Move up on big cobble holds. Good cobbles throughout the climb, with good jugs, crimp edges, pinches and huecos (I'm sure those held awesome cobbles at some point.)
Location The camel, on the east face of the camel's neck.
Protection 6 bolts. None are great, one had a sketchy looking old hanger. 2 bolts with chains on top.

| Can also toprope this by using the 5.3 approach up the back of the pillar. Exposed, but doable. |

| Yes, I agree with the description. There is one bolt with a very sketchy hanger and unfortunately it protects a tough sequence. |
