Description 

Get to the base of this route either by climbing Digital Watch, or by crossing in via the base of Nolina Crack. Clip the fixed RURP (don't funk it too much, you don't want it to come out!), and move out onto the face. This is the face directly above DW and has instant exposure.Clip the bolt and make the crux moves, one more bolt and easier climbing above lead to the top of the detached pinnacle. A nut or two can be used for additional protection. The anchor will be comprised of numerous small nuts, don't stint on the nut rack.


Protection 

A fixed rurp (yikes) protects fairly easy moves to a bolt. One more bolt leads to easier climbing, small nuts REQUIRED for the belay. Simul rap off. A 2" piece or two for the belayer may be comforting.

Good climbing and the simul-rap is a nice touch.
