Description Suggest change

Fourty feet to the right of Where Vultures Dare is a vertical crack. Climb this crack for 25' to a ledge and then continue over a mini roof and into a hand crack. When the crack ends wander out left and up towards a lone bolt (added after the FA) on a clean face. It is wise to avoid the loose terrain to either side of this face.

Belay from gear (#3 and #4 Camalot) on the right side of a large ledge.

This route can be used as an approach pitch for Aces High.

Location Suggest change

40' right of the start of Where Vultures Dare.

Protection Suggest change

1 set of cams to a #4 Camalot
Doubles in hand sizes
1 set of nuts
Slings
Helmet

Descent Suggest change

Walk off.
Traverse along the ledge to the south maintaining your elevation as you cross a gully. Continue the traverse passing along the base of the Aces High Tower and then continue scrambling to the south and down until it is possible to get back to the base of the route.
