This route has access issues. Please read the note available on the Granite Mountain page.

Description 

originally rated 5.8 (in RR's), then upgraded to 5.9-, the grade of the route varies from day to day, and sometimes feels into the lower 5.10's. The key is it is a strenuous lie-back. Fine gear once established, a real Granite Mountain must do.


Location 

the farthest right dihedral before the descent gully.


Protection 

stoppers, double set camming devices to 4"
