Description 

This popular link-up combines the lower portion of Black Bart with the upper portion of Motherlode and avoids the hard sections of both those routes.

Climb up and left along tricky thin edges past three bolts to a ledge, clip a bolt on the left wall of a shallow dihedral and then stem your way up the short corner to a low-angled arete passing two more bolts to anchors.

Location 

Combines the lower portion of Black Bart with the upper portion of Motherlode.

Protection 

6 bolts, chain anchors
