Trinity looking good on one of her first leads.


Description 

Begins at the top of a talus slope, just to the left of Bolt Route and several hundred feet west (right) of Goodro's Wall and Six Appeal. Bolts angle up to the right with fun moves on various size edges. Stay left near the top to make it more challenging. Careful on the descent as you are lowered into a chasm (watch your head)!


Protection 

8-10 quickdraws, chains at top

I loved this climb! Cool breezes and a spectacular view. It was the perfect amount of challenge for me, as I am still not fond of ANY overhang and still in LOVE with BIG hand and foot holds!! Definitely a good one for me to trust my feet and make the move without knowing what's ahead!

Nice climb. My only complaint about it is that when you lower you end up going ito the crack on the side, and if your partner is lowering you too fast the shale edges in the crack can crack your ankles...On second thought, maybe that's an issue to take up with my partner. Anyway, good climb, and very private. The next closest sport route is Goodro's about 50 yards around the corner.

There are only 6 bolts on this climb. Well bolted and safe.

Fun little climb to start the season off, A little tricky to clean if you don't do it from the ground up. Seems like it stays shady.

Don't fail to notice the historic rusty small bolt and home-made hanger near the bottom.
