Description 

This route is primarily a face climb, although you wouldn't guess this from the ground. Start up the south buttress of Echo Rock. Instead of going up the prow as for T.S. Special, move right and around the corner, following a low angle dihedral. The dihedral soon becomes an ominous looking bombay chimney. At this point, move right and belay. Then climb up past three bolts (crux) and then continue up a corner to the top.

Protection 

three bolts plus a standard rack
