Description Suggest change

P.M.S. is the easiest of the sport climbs at the crag, and is a popular warmup at BONP. Fun moves leaning off the arete with a crux at the last bolt where it thins.

If 5.10 is too easy, try it without using the arete; this is a fun 5.11 with thin edges & pockets, and doesn't seem too contrived.

Be careful not to send the loose gravel on the ledge below the anchor down on your belayer.

Location Suggest change

The sharp-looking arete right of the Wailing Banshees-Manic Crack-Lost Nerve face. Look for the big ledge it ends on.

Protection Suggest change

4 bolts to a 2 bolt anchor (out of sight on big ledge). At least 2 guidebooks say "only 3 bolts", but there are really 4.
