BETA PHOTO: Sunnyside Topo. Bring draws and medium sized gear.
Description
Steep, thin start leads to a fun mantle onto a big ledge. The lower portion feels a bit like Shadow. This makes a nice connecting route to the summit after climbing Garden Party, Dark Side or any of the P-Wall routes. Can easily be set up as a top rope if you don't want to lead it.
After climbing in the shadows of the far right side of P-Wall, a transition to Sunnyside provides a nice sunny route with great views.
Location
Wander from the top of P-Wall westerly to the base of Sunnyside & look up. You should be looking at a clean, steep wall with the summit blocks directly above you. If you're looking at a big, dirty crack you're too far to the right.
Protection
Mix of draws and a bit of gear to protect the mantle move. Runout but easy at the top.
The base of this climb is chock full of poison oak, however, there is a nice boulder on which to stand and belay. The helpful tip is to clip a long sling (36"+) off the first bolt and flake your rope over that...if TR’ing bring a tarp to cover the ground. This is a good climb that is worth a 'high maintenance' belay.
