Description
Begin by scrambling (class 4) up a low-angle right-facing corner about 75 Ft. right of the start of Right On, up to a big ledge. High Cost of Living, Cheap Way To Die, Lone Pine, Rough Riders, and Harlequin all start from this ledge.
Pitch 1:(Same as Harlequin) Walk right across this ledge to where it becomes more like a ramp, leading up and right and then blanking out. Continue right across a slab past 2 bolts (5.8) to the top of a left-facing corner. Belay on a small ledge with 2 bolts.
An alternative direct start is to climb the left-facing dihedral (5.7) up to the bolt-belay on top of pitch 1.
Pitch 2: Climb up and left on steepening slab to vertical face climbing. 7 bolts to a 2-bolt belay/rap anchor. 100 Ft.
