Description Mixed route right of Prune. Start at the obvious small right facing flake/corner 10' right of Prune. Climb straight up to to the ledge, the first bolt is rather high but the holds are good. Since the West face of the South Peak has relatively few bolted routes near the ground, I didn't want to put the first bolt to close to the ground. This route was done on-site and bolted from hooks when stances were unavailable. In the middle of the route you may want to place a 1-1.5 inch piece.
Location South Peak West face. about ten feet right of 'The Prune'
Protection 6 bolts and an optional 1-1.5" piece about 40' up.

| ...I seem to remember seeing an old guide book that had this route listed as "Seneca Days". At that time a "X" rated trad route. But I could just be confused. |

| Also, I used this route to pass a much slower team of three who had just started Prune. It makes a quick start to the 2nd and best pitch of Prune. |
