Description
Five bolts follow an arete on the South end of the rock. There is a fair amount of loose stuff and lichen on the route. Maybe if it saw a little more traffic it would clean up a bit more. Nice solid bolts. Great views to the South.
Location
Follow the trail behind the outhouse uphill to the south. Walk up slab/ramp. After the trail picks up again look uphill to the right for a trail that splits off through some brush. When the trail levels off look west down hill and you will see Punctuation Pinnacle. Andy's Sunset is located on the arete on the southern end of the formation. Follow the trail around the opposite side (west) to get to the base of the climb.
