Description Teenage Wasteland starts with a wicked mantle that gains an overhanging finger crack, and ends with big dinner plate holds to the top. The route is sustained and is a serious trad lead as the mantle is unprotected and the crack starts 15 ft above the deck.
Location This route is located just left of the cave; easy access for toprope and walkoff.
Protection Cams from small to med range. There are no fixed anchors so bring your gear of all sizes for the top.

| No mantle required at the start, it was quite tame. Simply rock up onto a high right foot. Others traverse in from the right to start. I broke a baseball-sized piece of rock off the horizontal dike (good foot) at the crux, but there are enough options so it shouldn't affect the grade. A one-move wonder. |

| Mantle required for those of us under 6' tall. Stay in the crack for a challenging, if short, crack climb. |
