Description 

Black & Tan is a fun 5.10 climb on the Leaning Boulder/Water Wall.
Climb an easy start to a single hard move before clipping the first bolt (can place a cam first). Step right and pull on positive holds on a bulge/prow. Above, you'll turn a small roof and reach a technical face to one last bulge with a fixed pin before the chains.

The clean tan face to the left can be toproped at a slightly harder grade.


Location 

Black & Tan is the 3rd bolted line from the left end of Leaning Boulder Wall.


Protection 

2 bolts and a pin to a 2-bolt anchor.
Bring a light rack of nuts and cams.
