Description
About 50 feet above the obvious starting corner of Tres Facile, above and to the right of Black Monday, is a slightly overhanging headwall with two bolted lines. The route described here, called Gas Chamber by the FA, is the right-most. Start up Tres Facile (5.6 but readily 4th classable) until able to break left to two bolts marking a somewhat contrived line to the base of the overhanging headwall. Puzzle through the strenuous moves above, then cope with the likely pump to the anchors, passing three more bolts en route. The narrative for the route in the Ruckmans' guide has this as 11b/c (although their topo shows it as 11c, a time-honored tactic of guidebook authors reluctant to pin down a grade), but it seemed harder than Cross Town and Mass Wasting to me.
