Description Another fun Seneca 5.7 Pitch 1: Scramble to and up a low angle dihedral with a nice finger crack for pro. At the top of the dihedral, make some interesting moves to achieve a small ledge with rap anchors. Pitch 2: Move left into the corner, to another rappel station. Pitch 3: Follows a corner just right of Old Man's last pitch.
Location On the face right of Le Gourmet Direct.
Protection Standard rack.

| As of May 2009, there was a perma-Alien at the crux on p1. This route would best be done early to avoid the steady stream of rappels that share the same basic line and anchors. |

| Alien is gone but there is a fixed nut half way up the 1st pitch now. |

| The second and third pitches are often skipped but are truly worthwhile! Early in the day is probably better to avoid getting rappelled on. |

| Good route, but as mentioned above it is a common rap route so do it early. I only did the first pitch. |
