Access: MORE INFO >>>
For the moment, access to this area by climbers should be from a temporary trailhead/parking area that is located near the old Morrell's Wall Parking Lot area. From there, the new Tom's Thumb Trail leads up toward Morrells Wall, Gardeners Wall and on to Tom's Thumb. Please look for, and use designated climber access trails.
This information is a public crowdsourcing effort between the Access Fund,
and Mountain Project.
You should confirm closures, restrictions, and/or related dates.

Description I thought the crux was at the transition to the main crack - there was a dusty shoot to clean and a med nut fit fine - but it was a dedicated move
Location The Route is the first obvious line on the right of the trail that branches off from the North Side of Sven 2 - it usually in the sun becuase its easternly face.
Protection 3 bolts - 2 bottom and one to protect the headwall at the top

| 2 pitches, the first is perhaps 170', the second is much shorter, maybe 60'. Rap off the back side (one 60M is sufficient), and scramble down to the saddle between tower ii and iii.
Mostly small to medium pro, belay stations are bolted. |

| There are not two pitches. There is one pitch about 100 ft. Two bolt anchor. Crux is clip first bolt. Traverse left to crack committing but not difficult |

| ZEric is probably talking about the main route on Sven Tower II. It goes at 5.6, with three pitches possible. It is best to do that route with the first pitch about 100 ft. and then just linking the top two pitches at 130 ft. or so. |
