The White Unicorn.


Description 

Pitch 1:
Climb up into the grove stem past a fixed pin and a big chock stone. Continue to stem until you get to a small ridge. Straddle the ridge and belay off of slung cobbles. (5.7 pg 13, 175')

Pitch 2:
Traverse up and right to a chimney. Follow the chimney to the summit and the anchor. The anchor is a piece of rope slung around the summit. (5.6, 25')

Descent:
Rappel from the summit to the ground in a 140' rappel.


Location 

The White Unicorn climbs the grove on the south-east side of the tower. Start at the base of the grove next to a tree.

Standard rack. Double set of Aliens from green to red, many runners, cord for slinging cobbles/chock stone, and cord to possiblely replace the anchor.
