Description Suggest change

This route is located on the far end of The Bank. This is the last route on the southwest face. It is located between "Welcome to Shelf Road, 5.10d," and "New World Odor, 5.11b/c". Start at a belay bolt, and follow a crack about 2-3 feet left of the arete. Rest on a ledge and try and figure out the crux moves to the anchor. There are nice views of Cactus Cliff from here. There are fun jams and good exposure on this route.

Per Glenn Schuler: excellent & airy face climbing up the left side of an arete takes you to an exposed stance below the crux bulge. Get a good rest & crank past the sharp finishing holds to the anchor.

Eds. This is a combination of submissions merged onto the 1st submission page to avoid confusion and duplication.

Location Suggest change

Per Glenn Schuler: this route starts off an exposed ledge that is situated right at the southern-most point of the Vault, where the cliff band makes a 90 degree bend up canyon (west). There is a belay bolt on the ledge.

To find the routes in this sector, look for a faint trail that branches off the main trail coming from the Bank a few hundred feet before it meets the road.

Protection Suggest change

A handful of draws and a two bolt anchor.
