Description 

P1: 5.6 Head left from the ledge, staying below the roof the whole time. This reqires some up and down movement, though. Just aim for the best pro and holds, which aren't that good. End at 2 bolt anchor below roof dihedral.

P2: 5.9 Clip a bolt or two as you head up and right, over the roof into the dihedral hand crack. This dihedral can be bushy. Head straight up the crack to a 2 bolt anchor.

P3: 5.4 Head down and right, around a corner and below a roof. Head up and left, finally scrambling for the anchors above Haunted House.


Location 

Start below Haunted House on the Halloween Wall, on a ledge 15 feet above the water. Start as far left as you can.


Protection 

Pro to 3", some shoulder slings, bolt, 2 bolt anchors. 1 rap from last pitch to start of the route.
