Description 

All details about this route are courtesy of Mark Grazier. Post a comment if you know something more about the history of this route. I understand that Mark found a bail sling on his P1.

P1: Approach pitch to offwidth, 60 feet, 5.7ish, crack, face, biota thrash, some loose rock, good protection, good anchor stance at base of offwidth. One Star.

P2: Offwidth, 30 feet 5.9ish, almost pure offwidth first 10-12 feet, bring your big stuff (Camalot 4, 4.5, 5), slightly less than vertical, ugly start but knee fits (mostly), work that heel toe cam! transitions to deep fists then eases significantly, good anchor stance. Three Stars!

Location 

After climbing Cultural Learnings of America, one can traverse down and left across the east face to get to the base of P1.
