Description 

This is the furthest East (on the right as you are looking at the cliff from the bottom) route on the wall. It starts on a flat area at the very base of the granite slabs. The first pitch follows a slab to the anchors that is broken in two places by horizontal seams. The first pitch is easy 5.7 or so slab climbing with 2 bolts to an anchor. The next pitch continues up the face to the left (follow the bolts). There is a mantle move that I would call the crux at the second bolt of the second pitch. The route then continues to top out with easier climbing.


Protection 

This is a bolted sport climb so bring quickdraws, however a small rack of nuts and cams is a good idea if you are squeamish about runouts. Bring your usual set-up for 2-bolt anchors. There is no rappel ring on the anchors of the first pitch (I left a 'biner), so someone might want to equip one.
