Description
Begin 10 feet to the left of Tea in the Sahara on the rib of rock on the left side of the major corner system. Climb up the rib and into the corner (sometimes a bit wet) itself passing two bolts. After some stemming, laybacking, and chimney moves (first crux) eventually step out left (a bolt protects this move) to the top of the widening crack and gain the top of a large flake. From the top of the flake, step up and slightly right to a small platform and then back up and left to a larger ledge under a small roof. Move up off the ledge via a shallow corner system (bolt on right) that leads to easier climbing up a low-angle arete. This ramp has a nice horizontal crack about half way up for a small cam placement. Move up the upper arete headwall, beginning on the left side and then back to the right for a few strenuous moves (passing two bolts) before topping out on the left side and up to the fixed anchors ( two ring bolts).
Don't let the bottom section with the wet corner section deter you, the upper half of the route is fun, clean and aesthetic.
