Upper rap anchors for the "south face direct" rap route off of North Rabbit Ear. 1st station is a 3/8" bolt and an old rusty but solid piton (a second piton is not normally used). 2nd station is two 1/2" bolts (see picture under Boyer's Chute route). This route (a single rope rap followed by a double rope rap) leaves you at the saddle between North and Middle Rabbit ears (below the church key on MRE). Descend west through a steep brushy gully to Rabbit Ears Canyon.
