Description
After starting on a flake, jam up a crack and get into the chimney. Towards the top, choose either a nice chimney on the right or a gritty handcrack on the left to surmount the final pillar. Easy scramble off climber's left
The approach for this climb is slightly annoying due to vegetation. First option: scramble up talus and traverse right while hugging the base, then up a small water groove before climbing a small block with a paddle cacti to the base. Second less-ideal option: traverse right below the vegetation before heading up to Hyperion, then battle the Cat Claw bush for 5ft to the crack. I'd recommend not leaving packs near the base.
