Description Suggest change

"Start with the first two pitches of the Bircheff Williams (11b, 10b) to a nice ledge on the arete. The BW 10d Choss pitch starts from here.
Pitch three, 35 meters, follow three bolts past 11d crux on arete to no hands on easier ground above. Several more bolts on 10b face to rap anchors.
Pitch four, forty meters, follow bolts past balancy 11b crux near arete to easier arete and face to cool rap anchor belay under a tiny roof at the top of the left facing corner.
Pitch five, forty five meters, pull the roof and follow bolts past a fixed pin and an 11c crux to a small ledge with rap anchors.
Pitch six, fifty meters, follow bolts to 11d crux, carry on right through the dike connector from CPF to BW and on to a great belay ledge with rap anchors.
Pitch seven, fifty five meters, follow bolts (12-15?) up this incredible "Flat Iron" feature past a 12a crux to a cool ledge at the bottom of more broken terrain leading into the U Shaped Bowl.

Rap the route, or Rap down the Kor/Beck with 2 60m ropes. A hidden gem. 

Location Suggest change

Starts around the corner on the face from second pitch of Bircheff/Williams. 

Protection Suggest change

Cams single to 3” for Bircheff/Williams. Bolts and draws for Grand Wazoo. Nuts, why not?
