Description
Pocket Change ascends the beaultiful, white face left of the "Illusions" arete. The rock is excellent, but the route lacks a clearly defined line, which detracts from the quality of the experience. Begin with easy climbing past the first bolt to an easy mantle onto the large ledge. The crux comes above the second bolt, with desperate liebacks & arete slaps. A fall near the 3rd bolt would not be pretty, with the ledge only a few feet below the second bolt. Above the 3rd bolt, the climbing remains difficult as the route wanders far to each side of the bolt line.
Location
This is the furthest left (S) route at the Vault. Climb the wall left of the "Illusions" arete.
