Keeping climbing areas open and conserving the climbing environment

Description 1) Start left of the arching corner left of "Fantasia". Climb past Three bolts to a belay.
2) Climb up to a bolt and some weird mantle moves (5.9). Climb past a fixed pin to a two bolt anchor.
3) Climb up to a crack/corner with a pin, continue up to a belay.
4) Wander to the top.
I haven't done this route in over twenty years. The pins may be gone. Use your best judgement.
Protection Pro to 2 in.

| Another superb face climb, but don't get on it until you are tuned into leap runouts.
A bit harder than it's neighboring route. Do Fantasia first, if you are feeling froggy then try this one. |

| It has been many, many years since I've climbed this route but, I remember it being a bold climb. |

| Better than Fantasia IMO. It's like Fantasia, accept without all that boring dike hikeing. Yeah, it's a dike hike too, but you'll be far form bored on this one. |

| I did this route back in 89. Is that dicey flake past the 2nd (?) bolt still there? I remember tossing a TCU behind it and just praying the whole thing didn't fall off when I mantled on it :). It's nice to see that the bolts have been changed out. Great lead, great route.

| I haven't done this route since 94 or so but it was by far one of the most memorable routes in my climbing history. It's all there, just keep your head on! :)
