Description 

This climb is out at the end of the pier and out of site until you climb out onto the sloping ledge (careful!).
From there, climb up and left for a few moves, then up and right past protection bolts to the top anchor. Rap off to reach the base of the climb again.


Location 

If you were to take a long walk off of the short pier, you'd fall right past this route.
To approach it from the base, however, you would walk down the gully left of the pier (north) and out around the end to belay below it on a big sloping ledge.


Protection 

Several (8?) good bolts to a 2-bolt anchor.

Fantastic route but be careful on the sloping belay ledge. The first bolt is super easy to clip and a good thing due to the belay ledge. The perfect warm-up for the Pier routes.
