A classic 1970 album by Neil Young.

Description 

Another nice TR for beginners and moderate climbers. Start as for Fever Pitch, but walk the ramp all the way to the far left end. You can also start this climb direct, coming off the ground to gain the left end of the ramp, adding a nice sequence of 5.7 moves to the climb. From the ramp, head straight up over small holds to gain the headwall. Pull over the headwall (the crux) left of the black streaks (Cali Gold) and finish at the anchor for Bacon Taco. If you want to try After the Gold Rush but aren't up to leading the .10a, simply move your TR setup from Fever Pitch, up and left over easy ground, to the anchors for Bacon Taco.

Location 

Southeast face of Gunsmoke Wall, just left of Cali Gold.
