Description 

This route climbs the south face of a small tower. It has fun laybacks to a bolt protected mantle to gain the top. The second should be aware of the pendulum if they were to fall at the mantle.

Location 

The tower is noticable as you drive to the parking spot. From where you park walk 1 mile up the trail/road and it will be seen along the eastern cliff band.

Protection 

aliens, TCUs, 1 and 2 camalots. Anchor is on the east edge and may need new webbing.
