Description

The rounded southeast-facing corner/arete that starts off the left end of the terraces.  Some easy scrambling gains the first bolt but it is a ways up.  The crux is at a steeper section passing the 2nd bolt.  Some fun holds, and great views of the Lighthouse Tower!

Location

Find the terraces - a couple of platforms about 70' right of Lighthouse Tower, just right of a dark 4' wide chimney.  This climb is at the left side of this panel beginning off these terraces.  The bolts are hard to spot from below.

Protection

4 bolts to a 2-bolt anchor with chain
