Left of Mission To Mars.

Small alien and nut for the start. Bolts to the anchor.

There is now (again?) a direct start, passing a couple pins to get to the bolts. The direct version is IMO a better and more natural line. Also, this protects well and IMO does not deserve a PG rating, especially in Sedona.

I added 3 fixed pins to the start of this route last winter. It is now well protected, and should clean up nicely now that the start of the route is established. No longer a PG route.

Route Update:

We also added an additional bolt on the arete, avoiding the ramp makes it now fun 5.10 to gain the sloping ledge under the roof.

THE CRUX SIDE-CLING AT THE ROOF BROKE OFF, LEAVING A NICE EDGE, BUT A BIT EASIER. SEEMS TO BE 5.11B NOW
