Description Suggest change

This was one of Yaniro's first routes at the city, and was protected by only ~ 3 bolts and maybe a pin on the FA. A few years later it was retrobolted (Stan Caldwell?) with a line of bolts up the grainy 5.11 slab. In 2021, after speaking with Tony & the local community, it was rebolted and the line altered to follow the steep patina up and right rather than bail immediately to the slab. The new version shares the first two bolts then rejoins at the upper slab to the anchor. 

1986 FA: Tony Yaniro, 5.12a

2021 Re-Engineering: Nate Liles; FA: Michal Matyjasik, 5.13-

Location Suggest change

The south east arete of the Building Blocks formation

Protection Suggest change

Bolts only. Anchors at top. A Stickclip is nice.
