Description
As you approach the area as described above, you will go under a big slab boulder. This is the "tunnel" I described in the approach. As you go through this, the rock to your right is Jambrosia Tower. The route Jambrosia is on the far side of this tower (South). There is a left-facing corner near a large pine tree. This corner is Just For Grins, 5.6*. Just to the left of this corner is a steep hand and fist crack that appears to be an offwidth (trust me, its hands and fists). This crack is Jambrosia. Climb this in one pitch to the chimney. You can wriggle up to the top and descend via chains on the East side OR you can wriggle across it to a small pine tree, and walkoff/downclimb to the north and back above the "tunnel".
