BETA PHOTO: Trojan Bunny Buttress.


Description 

Another little moderate that is a slightly spicier version of Lick my Plate just R of the same on the Trojan Bunny Buttress. This little route ascends the inviting lower angled W facing slab of the crag and goes to and past the spot marked "4" on the picture.

Start in corner & angle L or up face to L to crack. You can place an optional belay on gear here. Wander R of line of Lick my Plate on more runout terrain. Find a slab crux between the 2nd and 3rd bolts. It gets looser and more fractured in its upper parts. Pass a small roof on its R just before the top with a fixed wire. Probably S or R or PG-13 at least. 0 of 5 stars by both Rolofson & Hubble. 0.89 stars here :)

Double rope rappel.


Protection 

4 bolts, gear.

You can finish up and right under the large roof, out right under it on good gear (first knuckle cams) and then pull the roof into a corner and then up and left to a mantle to an additional set of anchors further up top and left. This is 5.10 (10-something).

To rap from those, a single 70m rope gets you down to the big tree, which we replaced the old shitty webing on with 2 new bads today- the old stuff was so old that the tree had outgrown it- so tight that it had a "ping" tone if you flicked it, and crispy. The tree can breathe again, but the green sling (quite old) will need to go, too. There are 2 new slings and someone with a sharper knife can take down the nasty old on remaining.
