Description 

From the ledge scramble up easy terrain to clip a high first bolt. Now that you are safe, wrestle edges and crimps until reaching a roof. Avoid the temptation to bypass the roof -- engage it head on. Veer up and right on easier terrain, taking note of rock quality, and pull up to the hidden anchors.

Location 

"Knight To Pawn Four" is located on Knight Wall. It is to the right of "Knight Maneuvers" and the left of "Checkmate". The route can be identified by the high first bolt.

Protection 

Bolts and chains. The chain anchors are a bit recessed so I would recommend shoulder length slings for working the route and rappelling at the end.
