It's likely few climber go there, but it may affect the adventurous.
Description
This is a pitch above Five to One that makes for an uncommon, 2 pitch link-up at N. Table Mt. The description comes from ascents years ago.
Climb Five to One, 5.10+, with 8 bolts. Continue up on a bulging face that looks steeper than it climbs. There are big holds and good rests as you clip 5 bolts. The anchor sits at the level of the ledge from which you belay. It makes for an awkward position if you must belay someone heavier than you, so be prepared. Rap the route.
Per Conor Jonson: this was originally described as an extension to Nine To Five, which can be done, but Five to One is the more logical start.
Protection
5 bolts plus 2 anchor bolts. Apparently, at one point, the first bolt was missing a hanger.
Per Dave J and Jay Eggleston: two hangers [were] missing from two bolts on this route.
Per Aaron Glasenapp: the bolts have been replaced with glue-ins in November of 2024 and therefore no longer missing hangers.
