Description

If climbing all of Brown Sugar scares you or you don't have the whole day to dedicate, this is an easy way to escape from the first pitch.

Start as for Brown Sugar. About 2/3 the way up pitch 1, escape from the friction slab by hand traversing right on a ledge, past a bolt, to a belay. Scramble off to climber’s right and down to the Road Warrior Area. Alternately, rappel off a block back to the highway.
