Description 

Serenity Now is a great route to get on when folks are waiting in line for the "classic" 5.7s at the Meadows.... You can normally get on this route on a busy day, and I'd say it's one of the best routes of the grade close to the parking lot....

You start up the same slab as Apocalypse Later (5.11c), but head left around the corner into the wet gully.... Without wetting your feet, climb up on to the right hand wall of the gully and follow the bolts to the Quick clips.... The crux is on the upper part of the climb and is done in a few different ways...all of which give you your money's worth for the grade...Kinda tricky....

When lowering, keep the rope moving cause the rope tends to run over some kinda sharp rock....


Location 

The right hand wall of the left gully....


Protection 

4 bolts to quick clips.
