Description
This is a short but very techy bit of slab climbing. It gains the anchor of Bayne's Corner. Easily top-ropable from the anchors. Can also be used as a single-pitch link-up for the Route of Passive Aggression, but if you do, be prepared for rope drag. Best to do in 2 pitches.
Start on the mossy apron and climb moderate terrain past a first reachy bolt (added 10/21). A stiff draw or short stick would make the easy but is not necessary; it was placed high to protect the next mantel move. From bolt 2 there are just enough edges to keep the climbing doable by normal humans. Thin moves get you to the next bolt where you'll want to start trending right a little. Follow good edges up to the anchor. The end is spicy but reasonable (and safe) if you follow the edges.
