Description
Pitch 1- Climb past 3 bolts on steep prow to gain large hueco. Easier climbing past two more bolts leads to a ledge below a steep black bulge. Large soft edges past two bolts and some difficult moves leads to a runout then a two bolt belay on a ledge. 5.12- 115'
Pitch 2- Climb right into double holes and the bolt. Mantle and proceed up long 5.7 runout to another bolt. A slab leads to a ledge and the base of the classic 5.10+ corner. Climb the corner with pockets passing two bolts then arrive at a two bolt belay atop the pillar. 5.10+ R 110'
Pitch 3- Clip bolt and move up and right on tenuous moves. Easier climbing, then harder climbing, then easier climbing past 3 bolts deposits one in a large flat hueco with a two bolt belay. 5.11 (sporty) 100'
Pitch 4- Traverse left 5.6 to bolt, then climb around to the top and a two bolt anchor. 5.6 35'
Descent- With 1 70 meter rope or two shorter ropes, rappel from the top anchors to the top of pitch 2. Then another rappel to the top of pitch 1. And then another rappel to the ground.
Note- Bolted on lead and completed April 8th and 9th 2006.
