Description Suggest change

One of the best climbs of its grade in Clifton. Classic face climbing on superb rock.

Pitch 1: Scramble up to the flat, grassy ledge with a bolted anchor shared with Dazed and Confused. Move up and right just below the bushes to gain a crack on the right. Climb crack or face on the right to bolt anchors (50'). Single rack to 4".

Pitch 2: Sustained climbing straight up the knobby, white face past 6 bolts and a Tri-cam/.75 placement. Move left through the brown streaks to a two bolt anchor (140'). Two rappels with a 60m rope brings you back to the starting ledge. Rappel straight down to a bolted hanging stance on What's in a Name or 4th class to the summit.

All the bolts and anchors have been replaced as of Fall 2022.
