Description
This route is sort of a pile and not really worth doing. I have no idea how it seemed good enough for listing in the "Trad Guide to Joshua Tree" as there are seriously way better routes of this grade in the park. This route starts on the left side of the northeast face of Grossvogel below an elephant ear flake.
P1) Climb up tricky ground below and right of the flake, then traverse left across the flake using the crack above. Continue in a slanting crack up and right to easy ground. Belay is a function of rope drag (you can split it up if there's too much), or you can run it all the way to the top.
P2) Continue to the top from where you belayed.
Descent: Scramble off down the slabs to the north. WARNING!!! The initial part of this descent is harder than the route you just came up! Place anchors and belay accordingly for safety!!!
