Description 

Effigy Too is located just left of the bolted Crossroads (5.10d). The crux is encountered in the first 15' of climbing and protection is a little bit tricky. The difficulty eases up substantially (5.8ish) after that. Gear belay.

Descent: walk off down chimney to the south.

This would be a 3-star route if it were a bit longer.


Protection 

Pro to 2 inches, TCUs to protect the crux off the deck.

Amazing start. Bouldery but not too difficult. We found you can protect the crux pretty well with a #2 stopper. Once you get to the prominent crack feature, its just fun cruisin' from there.

Good route, definitley worth doing and not even close to 10b - jugs and decent feet means any 10 climber will breeze throught the lower section.

I definately agree with the rating as the first moves are quite bouldery. Above the difficulty eases quite a bit, but it still keeps your attention.
