Description

This line offers fun jug hauling after a reachy boulder problem start. The line's proximity to the "Fallen Idol" allows some shade for the belayer in the early part of the day.

Begin by scrambling up to a ledge and stick-clipping the first or second bolt. A long reach from cheater stones leads to a good, slopey pocket. Work the feet up to a comfortized 2-finger pocket, then make a long move to a big hole at the second bolt. Things ease tremendously from here, as nice jugs and edges weave up the yellow slab.

Location

The first bolted line left of the Fallen Idol pillar.

Protection

~8 bolts to 2BA anchor which currently has fixed biners. Stick clip recommended.
