Went to Chrysler crack this spring hoping to set up a top rope from the walk off, because I didn't have the gear. Couldn't find a way up that wasn't super sketchy with tons of exposure. If I had a stick clip, the bolts to the right of the route would have worked, but unfortunately I didn't. Anyone have a good description of the walk-off?
I accidentally went right too early on the approach and ended up getting to the top from the backside. Seemed less sketchy than coming around from the left but it wasn't a very direct route.
I've never done the walk UP, but have walked off a couple different times and two different ways. I think the easiest way to navigate is to walk off to the climbers right, more or less going down/across a slab and butt shuffling down a wide crack slab chimney thing. Then follow the ramp up back to the base.
So as a potential walk up, walk to climbers right and around the corner and follow the ramp down, passing a rappel anchor on the left. Keep going a little and on the left there should be a wide crack in a slab, scramble up this and trend left across the slab at the top.
