This is not really a new anchor, but a more useful anchor above a narrow ledge, 40 feet above the final 2-ring anchor on Wings of Desire. This anchor is useful if one wishes to finish Kama Sutra, Tree of Life or Wings of Desire at the top of the wall. <br> <br> To rappel from this anchor with a single 200-foot rope, it is (I think) necessary to rap to the anchors at the tops of Wings of Desire or Kama Sutra, then down again to the 2-ring anchor atop the first pitch of Kama Sutra. Then one more time (about 70 feet) to Ledge Two.<br> <br> NOTE: It is not possible (with a 200-foot rope) to rappel all the way to the first 2-ring anchor on Kama Sutra and make Ledge Two in just 2 raps. It takes 3 raps to reach Ledge 2 from this anchor at the top of the wall.
