Description
An oldie that deserves traffic.
P1 Up and over the corner onto face, then diagonal up and slightly right to big ledge. Alternatively, follow corner/flake system up and right and then up to ledge. Either way 5.9+ with crux just below the ledge and usually dirty, which is why this deserves more traffic to clean it up.
P2 Traverse right on ledge to below obvious short, clean R facing corner. Up corner on micro nuts to roof then out left to spectacular bath tub belay. Stellar lead by Chris, FA would not be upset by the addition of a blade better than the micros. Solid 5.10, 70'.
P3 High exposure 5.6 ground to top of Courthouse. 70'.
