Description Suggest change

A shrunken portion of the early original line, this follows a sweet right leaning corner off of the Big Easy belay ledge to a new bolted anchor. Though originally the route involved a 4th class traverse from the left side of the Iron Man Ledge to a big pine tree, you are now better off coming up the first pitch of the Big Easy or Toxic Gumbo. From the top of the corner the route followed a huge flake (now part of the trail below!) into what is now the upper slab of Bourbon Street and the White Buttress above. The absence of the flake cut the route in half, but if you have a little gear the corner is a nice short second pitch. It can also be TRed after doing Bourbon Street or Cloud Atlas (with a directional)

Location Suggest change

Directly above the first pitch of The Big Easy. If you come up Toxic Gumbo, continue onto the ledge and belay there (bolted anchor)

Protection Suggest change

Small rack of cams and nuts, bolted top anchor with ram horns
