Description
Another scary route up San Gabriel granite. First pitch is 60 meters long, second is about 100ft or so and ends at the big pine at the top of the headwall, which has served as the rappel anchor in past years.
The rock is a little water worn and presents mostly smooth sloping holds, chockstones, and awkward chimneys with step-arounds with 200ft+ of exposure. Don't fall. Protection is challenging at times. The cracks are either dirty, or flaring, or both. Expect 50ft+ runouts on easier terrain (up to 5.7).
Pitch 1 belay is way up near the top at a small Sycamore growing out from underneath a very large and wobbly sharp rock. I backed this up with two shaky cams in offset cracks. DFU. Be gentle.
Route was put up solo via Silent Partner and 60m rope while I was sick and unable to eat solid food as a result of dental work following several major tooth infections.

Location
This route climbs the buttress next to the Sheep Canyon Rappel Route.
Info on that here: dankat.com/advents/sheepc.htm
Hike up Icehouse Canyon until you cross the stream. Look at your map. See Sheep Canyon? Go up Sheep Canyon until you're stopped by the headwall. Look at the beta photo. See that? That's all I can give you. It's quite simple. You probably shouldn't be climbing this route anyway. It's scary, oooh.
