Description Black & Tan is a fun 5.10 climb on the Leaning Boulder/Water Wall. Climb an easy start to a single hard move before clipping the first bolt (can place a cam first). Step right and pull on positive holds on a bulge/prow. Above, you'll turn a small roof and reach a technical face to one last bulge with a fixed pin before the chains. The clean tan face to the left can be toproped at a slightly harder grade.
Location Black & Tan is the 3rd bolted line from the left end of Leaning Boulder Wall.
Protection 2 bolts and a pin to a 2-bolt anchor. Bring a light rack of nuts and cams.

| It's possible to get two pieces of pro before the first bolt (small cam then a medium stopper) and two before the second I usually place a number one (red) BD Camalot in the small right facing dihedral after the first bolt. Also the fixed pin is five inches long and still in good shape. |
