Description Suggest change

An enjoyable moderate route up Questa Dome's Southeast Face. Start 200 yards uphill and right of the major right facing dihedral at a right facing corner with a large standing snag on top. There is a cairn to mark the start of the route.

Pitch 1 (5.9+, 115 ft.)  Climb the right facing corner until it turns left and then angle up right to a small ledge with a tree.  Continue up a slab past two bolts (crux) to a large ledge. Belay off of large tree above ledge.

Pitch 2 (5.9 PG-13, 115 ft)  Pass tree, climb up the zig zag crack and a few slab moves to its left and then up the left leaning, left facing corner to small ledge just above a small tree. Use hand size cams and a fixed nut for belay.

Pitch 3 (5.8+,  65 ft)  A short, fun pitch.  Climb the small right facing corner just left of the larger right facing corner to an overhanging face. Traverse left below the overhanging face and exit up and left onto shelf with a 2 bolt belay. 
Pitch 4 (5.6 PG-13, 125 feet)   Follow the slab up and left slinging chicken heads to the left side of the large roof and then up the featured rock to a belay at a pine tree.
