Description
This is a superb route. Definitely an out-there experience. Logistics are on par with K2. This is a remote route. Super fun.
The route had new bolts at belays in 2013. One of the upper pitches had some older (non-belay) bolts. The crux pitch was solid 11a layback but had pro.
Paddle across the reservoir in a canoe. Rack up on the Talus Island to the climber's right of Moon Shadows. Start out of a boat at the base of Moon Shadows. Climb to the top.
Descent: Rappel either Sirens of the Stanislaus or Falcons of Neptune. Bolted belays up to the base of the crux pitch. There is no current report of folks rappelling Falcons of Neptune. Do note that Sirens of the Stanislaus will drop you about 100 meters to the left of Moon Shadows. From there you will either need a boat or to swim back to the base of Moon Shadows. We stashed a wetsuit on a ledge at the base of Siren's of the Stanislaus and swam. That ledge may be submerged depending on the time of year - plan accordingly.
