Description Suggest change

P1 (5.6, ~105 ft): Starts at the lowest point of the slab, heading up just to the left of the first pitch of Northwind. The start is shared with Tiptoy and Out of the Box. Follow the closely spaced bolts up the slab, making some fun moves as the slab steepens a bit before reaching an anchor one step below the headwall.

P2 (5.7, ~100 ft): Mantle the last step before the headwall, then step right for a bit of exposure before following interesting features up the right side of the headwall. There are two sets of anchors at the top of this pitch: a newer set just before the lip and an older set just over the lip and to the right.

P3 (5.5, ~45 ft): Follow a few bolts up a low-angle, barely featured slab. Fun friction gets you to the anchor. You can stop here, or continue on and find one more bolt and a higher anchor that protects the final step to the low summit. While this last step is easy, it can be a bit unnerving if it is wet, so many choose to stay roped up here.

After finishing P3, scramble up to the true summit where the walk off trails are accessible. Enjoy the views at the top!

Location Suggest change

Start at lower end of the slabs.

Protection Suggest change

Bolts. This climb can be led entirely on natural gear, use aliens and offset nuts. Also bring a few pieces if going to the true summit.
