Description 

The left-most route on the Morning Glory wall (just to the right of The Peanut), this route has two fun pitches on good rock.

Pitch 1 is 5.9ish and is protected by 7 bolts.

Pitch 2 contains a 5.10 crux towards the top.

A double-rope rappel will reach the ground from the second set of anchors.


Protection 

Bolts with bolted anchors.

Mattyg & JohnK simul-rapping off of the 1st pitch.  Note that it requires two ropes to rap the route (even a 60 meter rope is not long enough to safely reach the ground).  In a pinch, one might rap to the Lion's Jaw anchors and then to the ground with a single rope.

with some long runners this can be linked into one really nice pitch.

I only give this route three stars if it's climbed all the way to the 2nd anchor.

is it true that a single 60m rope will NOT get you to the ground from the end of the first pitch? I saw some folks having some trouble there once for this reason. can anyone confirm this?

Confirmed...You need a 70M rope (Or 2 ropes) to lower from the first anchors
