Encore 

This route was great fun. I led the 2 pitches in one as the rope drag aint too bad. The upper arete/face is exposed and has some classic beautiful rock. And, yes, it is a wee bit runout one the 2nd pitch, but easy climbing with large foot holds. Lowering off the anchor up top may not be a good idea as the arete to the right is VERY sharp.

A 70m rope gets you down to the base of Big in Japan with one 110' rappell. Really fun 5.7 on cool rock. Gotta love the bicolor 70m rope but don't lower off that sharp arete.

After the roof, there is also a bolted line up the arete on the left. Anyone know what's it's called? Felt about 5.7 as well.

Sections of this route have probably been climbed before. A #1 TCU helps on the 2nd pitch.

"Really fun 5.7 on cool rock." ...1 star?

For some reason, I really like this route. IMO it's 2-3 stars

Second pitch made the route. A couple of moves you are forced right to the edge of the arete with some unexpected exposure. New fav on the island! Thanks for the boltage.

Immediately to the left of Ampitheater Left Overhang. Fun, 5.7 climbing on first pitch, but last section run out. . Second pitch is 5.5 if you go left, 5.7 if you stay on/near the arete, very fun, very aesthetically pleasing rock. Second half of second pitch run out, but not really uncomfortably so. Nice view from the top, easy walk off or two raps. Two and a half stars.

did the first pitch yesterday as my first climb after knee surgery. nice easy climb to get back into it. just ran out the upper section since i had no trad gear. i didnt know the grade when i got on it and im a little surprised its a 5.7 - i would say the first pitch is lower than that.

This was the second route I have ever done in BCC and my first multi-pitch lead. I gave it 4 stars because as a new leader I thought the second pitch made the climb worth it. The first pitch and crux of the climb is pulling the roof. As soon as you do this look right and you will see the chains. Like the other comment stated it’s a 5.4 climb for about 25' with no protection. A fall from here would be deadly for you and your ego...The second pitch follows the bolts up the right arête to two chains and a sketchy bolt that is getting loose. I believe the first pitch had 3 bolts and once you pull the roof you go straight to the chains on your right (you can see these chains from the ground). The second pitch was fun jug hauling and was protected by 4 bolts. The only thing on the second pitch that sketched me out and made the climb for me was how exposed it was. The bolts are kind of run out (especially between bolts 2-3) but like I said it’s a jug haul. You could definitely make the whole thing one long pitch but the rope drag would suck. You can either wrap down or walk off. Overall it was a great climb, 5.7.

The old pin that used to help protect the second pitch is now gone. Even sportier now.
