Description

Climb the wide crack between Pink Torpedo and The Sweepings to the bolted anchor of The Sweepings for an optional belay. Then climb through the back of the squeeze chimney to the top and belay from a tree.

Descend by the gully to the right or carefully make your way to the anchors for Poncho (a short belay is recommended for reaching the exposed anchors).
