For the moment, access to this area by climbers should be from a temporary trailhead/parking area that is located near the old Morrell's Wall Parking Lot area. From there, the new Tom's Thumb Trail leads up toward Morrells Wall, Gardeners Wall and on to Tom's Thumb. Please look for, and use designated climber access trails.
Easy face climb that can be done as one or two pitches (60m rope required for one 185' pitch). Climb face right of bottom belay. 2 bolts at the beginning, horizontal crack part way up for a cam or nut, then 3 more bolts. A bit run out but climbing is pretty easy (you can place pro over in the gully to the left if you wish). There is a ledge 2/3 up with a crack where you can break it into two pitches. Good belay ledge at the top with nice crack for setting up an anchor, or you may be able utilize nearby bushes. Walk off towards the east (rock left).
Location
Right of One for the Road on the far east portion of the Sven slab area.
Protection
5 bolts, small to #1 C4, stoppers. Use 24" alpine draws if you plan to climb it as one long pitch.
