Description 

This short pitch is up and to the [left] of Cardinal Richelieu, through the upper band of rock at Peanuts. If you were silly enough to come out and climb Cardinal Richelieu, and haven't dropped enough rock and dirt on your partner, or simply want to make the walk-off even more complex, move down and left on the ledge at the top of Cardinal Richelieu and then up though the last band of rock at the first obvious crack system.

While this route in and of itself is not so terrible, it doesn't really have any merit either, and getting to it involves some of the worst Eldo has to offer. Skip it. There are many far better routes.

Protection 

Standard rack. Watch for loose rock.
