Description This is a single pitch climb on the tillite rock left of Good Plantains. The climbing is a bit weird on edges, slopers and pockets up to a small cave/ledge.
Location Start on a fairly steep face about 20 feet left of Good Plantains. Lower or rappel off.
Protection 5 bolts to a set of double ring anchors

| This route was a lot better than I thought it would be. I enjoyed it. There are a couple really cool pockets between the first and second bolts. Kudos to Christian and Dave for putting up a good route on rock we've all walked right past a million times. |

| Fun climb on unique and interesting rock with some cool holds. Short, but a must do just so you can tell people you onsited El Crap. |

| 5 bolts actually, to double ring anchors. Lower half cleaner. Still a few loose blocks on the upper half. |

| I was surprised how clean it was. All my previous experience on the Tillite was pretty bad! Plus I love doing a mantel onto sand! |
