Description 

P1, 5.11: Fire up on largely moderate terrain to an interesting arete finish. Fun moves on largely excellent stone. P1 gives a good warm-up for the rest of the routes in this sector.

P2, 5.11: Tricky start gains a broad ledge at 50 feet. The block above guards the crux and great exposure on some amazing jugs. Don't fooled by the jugs, the block is steep and still powerful.

Location 

This is the middle route of three in this sector and second from the left. Descend by rapping the route.

Protection 

A dozen quick-draws and something for the double bolt anchors at the top of both pitches. We used a 70 meter rope, but a 60 meter should work as well.
