Walk off descent beta 3. Looking from below

Rope is on unknown 5.10. fun climbing but questionable rock. Tread lightly. The alternative descent rappel is the gully feature 15 feet right of the rope. This route needs to be properly cleaned

The many different ways to approach and descend. This will continue to change as the housing development progresses

The white line is the location of Lake Mead Buttress Original Route and the yellow line is the descent.

Lake mead buttress on the left. Most climbs are on the face

Alternative descent rappel anchor: **This anchor no longer exists.** A new anchor was installed where you see the climber about 15 feet above. No longer necessary to do any sketchy downclimbing. 60m rope gets you down. lots of big loose blocks; be careful

Summit overlooking town.

Approximate descent route. The two bolts literally came out of nowhere when we were just about to sacrifice some gear and rap down.

Our ill-advised route up. Yellow is the climb, green is the descent hike. Follow the directions for descent on the Lake Mead Buttress page. There is a rap station, indicated on this photo, that takes you the final few feet down. A 60m is sufficient.

Lake Mead is on the left

Straight forward descent

Walk off to buckskin cliff shadows. Top out and head north until you gain the ridge. Follow the ridge down to the wash. GPX track in climber map
