Description 

Another area classic! Steep, exposed climbing above the water.

There are actually 2 (or more) variations. The plumb line climbs pockets up a steep face to the right-hand side of a small roof that caps the route (5.10c). Another variation steps left at a large ledge mid-height and climbs a shallow corner before traversing back right beneath the summit cap (5.10a/b).


Location 

Around to the right of the Main Face, overlooking the ocean.


Protection 

Bolted top anchor

The 10's on the side are way more fun than the face climbs. Watch out for loose rocks and tourists who wander right underneath you.
