Description
Start roughly 30 feet to the left (toward the paved road and the climb Bored of the Rings [which is in the Watanobe Wall section of MP]) of Grand Theft Avocado between huge boulders.
Step across from a lower boulder to reach a left-trending flake/chimney. Go up and left about eight feet in the flake/chimney, then squeeze through a tight section (crux). A couple body-lengths above the squeeze is a sloping ledge. Move right on the sloping ledge about eight feet and climb the obvious wide crack above to the top.
Descend by rappelling with one 50m or longer rope from the fixed anchor above Candelabra.
If this route is at you limit, carry gear to grey and purple Camalots.
