Description 

An obvious line up the pretty right side of the highest pinnacle in the area (to the right of Puppy Chow). Solid face climbing with some nice exposure. The route is pretty sustained throughout though the crux seemed to be just before the last bolt.


Protection 

standard Mt. Lemmon sport rack. 12 quickdraws.

Thats right, the crux is at a bulge right above the second to last bolt. If you plan on setting up a TR, bring a lot of webbing or a cordelette and some two foot runners.

A 60m reaches the ground.. a 50m definitely would not, the route is not 70ft like the guidebook says.. Pulling the rope is pretty rough on it due to the flat section at the top of the route so like the other poster said you may want to rap down the 5.11 route on the north side..I would recommend staying on belay until you get clipped into the north side shuts, they're down a bit from the top of the pinnacle..

Great steep slab route. Gets progressively harder the higher you go. Committing moves near the finish.

There are two sets of anchors on the top of the pinnacle. We used the lower set and I had no trouble pulling my rope.
