Description 

This is a short, 2 pitch route on the east face. Scramble up a gully between The Chair and The Knight. Go up a wide crack on the left (just left of Blues for Allah & just right of a line of 6 bolts) that narrows up to a ledge. Fire up past 3 bolts to a sling belay, back it up with a #2.5 Friend. Go through a slot, then boulder up, past 3 old bolts, lieback to a squeeze chimney. There are some old 1/4" bolts to the right of the chimney. Rap 80' off the back off bolts.


Location 

Just left of Blues for Allah and right of a 6 bolt line, there is a wide crack that narrows down on the East Face of The Chair.


Protection 

To a #4 Camalot.

We did the upper pitch from the Suntan ledge. Some of the bolts have been removed/chopped. We found one bolt on the climber's right hand side near several chopped bolts, and one bolt on the climber's left about 20' up. We gave up on this miserable climb and lowered off the top bolt. There is a crack to the climber's left that will accept a blindly placed nut.
